I haven't played Holi in ages. But this time, I did play with colors on Holi .... though only on paper - I finished a watercolor I started last year, during the long weekend. It was "inspired" by a photograph of a painting I saw in the newspaper. The painting I made is about 34cmX24cm (the photograph about 6cmX4cm). Given such a small size, I sure took a long time to finish it!
Stage 1: The background.I managed to splash a few drops of dark color, from which I couldn't recover till the end.
Stage 2: Long break.This is around where I left it last year .... to hibernate for the winters :-)
Stage 3: Execution completeFinally ... done ... finishing touches added ... ready to be framed.

loved it..colours always so much meaning to life
I absolutely loved it !!
The sketch and the colours both. To me sketches look better.
Which color did you use for this ?
Sigma, why don't you consider this as your alternate line of business ? When you get bored of those bugs ?
I am serious.
@Backpakker : Thanks a lot!!
@Cuckoo: I used watercolors/poster-paints for this one ...
Alternate line of business ... ha ha ... I just might. The only thing is that it might not turn out to be as well paying as fixing those nasty bugs :-D
simply beautiful... i seriously feel, u should think of it as a profession on the side... and btw, art investment is on an all time high, now a days!
Ok, side business then. It's final ! :P
Earlier I used to read a blog where the painter was uploading her paintings for sale and whoever was interested could order a print of it (of course a good size and good paper). All transactions thru internet. I know there is nothing like the actual painting but something is better than nothing.
Now I have lost that URL, if I can find again, I'll give you for sure.
Kya khyaal hai ?
This made me laugh - the reason - I have one sketch which still needs a touching up....God only knows when I will finish touching up and get to frame....!
Just keep doing when you get time to do it....!!
Tk care ~
