The Bilbao Project

'Getxo Marina, Bilbao'
Watercolor, 14 x 21 inches

'5th Parish, Bilbao'
Watercolor, 21 x 14 inches

Recently, I was commissioned to paint 2 paintings of Bilbao city by the BETA PICTORIS Gallery in Bilbao, Spain. The Bilbao project is about painting different scenes of the city by a closed group of artists from different countries, of which I am a member too.

  5. Both paintings are stunningly beautiful in their own way. One in blue is so serene and the one in orange is glowing with light.

  6. Greetings, Ramesh. Glad to hear of your continuing success. Love the splash of warm light on the mountain ridge at Getxo. Wonderful colors in the street scene, too. Great work.

  7. Very nice handling of colors here. The oranges in the mountain and sea, and the blues of the soft shadows in Getro Marina. And the oranges in 5th parish held together with the darker treeline. The purple tint in the skyline blending with the background structures.

  8. ¡Congratulations, Ramesh, because of that project!. Your works about Bilbao are very goods.
    You now? I live near Bilbao, 90 kms. more or less. I'll send you a few photos from my town in case you liked to paint them.

    Big hug, my friend.

    Enrique.

    1. Dear Enrique,
      At first I didn't understand why you sent me the photos as I didn't check my blog comments. Only now I understood. Thank you very much for your good wishes. Nice to know that you live close to Bilbao :)
      A big hug

  9. Excuse me, I've written "You now?" and it must be "You know?" Sorry.
