Acrylic and mixed media on wood panel

Claude Monet once said to Paul Durand-Ruel, “ I took your advice and managed to make some quite good things out of paintings I considered irredeemable. “
Have you ever revisited an older painting?

Recently I revised an older painting from “Off The Grid “ series.
Worked on opening up the composition and making the colors more cohesive. This really helped bring out the freshness of the colors.

 

 

"Experiment 15"

Mixed media on paper

Lots of layers and mixed media experimenting to reach a finish point.....To create this painting i used
a plethora of techniques and ways of working with mixedmedia, collage, paint and a variety of markmaking tools. 

The colors in this painting are inspired by beach life - soft turquoise, seashell, taupe, sandy pearl.

"Color is a power which directly influences the soul."Wassily Kandinsky

Fruit Bowl

12" x 12"
Acrylic and mixed media on gallery-wrapped canvas
SOLD

This painting is inspired by the one thing that is present in almost every home - a fruit bowl. A dish, vessel, tureen, pot, container to hold produce. Because it is such a universal idea it holds a lot of fascination for me as a painter. I had a lot of fun coming up with the colors and textures for this painting.
Drawing some of the fruits in was a last minute decision because just leaving it as an abstract painting might not appeal to everyone.

This is a small practice piece to try gold leaf,... not sure how i feel about it!!

Perfume Bottles

Acrylic on canvas paper
9" x 12"
$150

Women (and men) love perfumes so much that there is a whole industry dedicated to it. It is not just the scent but how it is marketed and presented to the consumer. The beautiful bottles that hold the liquid are so sparkling and mesmerizing that i don't want to throw away the used bottles.This painting is inspired by the bottles in my closet and a new tube of gold Liquitex Paint marker.

These sessions can be included as painting classes, painting workshops, private painting parties and corporate events where you can experience the creative process of painting an original work of art.
NO PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE REQUIRED!!

Simple landscape

Orchids
Acrylic on watercolor paper
5" x 10"

This painting is inspired by my recent trip to India and viewing the works of contemperory Indian artists. I found that they do a lot of line work and abstract paintings. This painting combines both - the dancer is a line drawing and the painting has an abstract background with a representational Lord Ganesh showering red flower petal blessings on the dancer (the dancer is a very good friend's daughter - Neha, done from a photo taken from her arangetrum/ dance finals, invitation card). the column represents a temple setting. This is a first of a series i am planning to do, please leave comments if you have any thoughts about the colors used or composition or any other thoughts about the painting.
This painting is not for sale.
