Nature

Sunset and sunrise are the two times of the day when it is most inspiring to watch. Sunrise uplifts the mood as the day begins. Sunset calms you down as the day ends. I was fortunate to see many of those during my trip to India. This particular sunrise is special because it is in my ancestral village. After eight years I had visited the village, Watkhed. The landscape had changed a lot with the introduction of huge power line structures. This photo highlights the natural source of energy and the man made source of energy. The title of this photo is Witness.

Series- Gajra

The final assignment was to do a series. I chose to do a series on Gajra (jasmine flower garland). I made 3 paintings in this series. I used impasto technique for the figures. The background is the rangoli design.
