Floral Magic#2


 Daisies are darlings...not much of hustling, no waste of time....😊

Floral magic#1


 Believe me, I am pretty bad in painting flowers and it just takes the hell out of me, I am terrified of bringing about the exact colors and with a deadline, it's even worse. Took ages to get the real shade....Roses are lovely on branches.....🎢🎼

Sunshine beyond


 I never painted such a big painting before. It was 69" in height and 36" in width. A totally different experience with a non fussy client with a beautiful house. I went with abstract theme as all the other works on their wall are abstracts and I didn't want to break the theme. Had real fun doing it.

Chugli(Gossip)


 Another commission, crafted for one of our dear family friend, the demand for a folk based and colorful painting was enough to take my mind to the Santhals, their simple lifestyle, the Palash flower, red soil and mostly white attire, everything so color coordinated. To add to it , the nine figures that I drew resonated so well with me and my eight friends that everyone were thrilled watching the finished picture.

Commissions during Covid





 A very late post though...all these lotuses were commissioned by one of my acquaintance. Her requirement was simple, each lotus must be unique in colour and shape. It was peak Covid, the second wave and I had plenty of time as I was quarantined, painting was the only way of keeping my mind  refreshed.

Kolkata nostalgia


The red house with its shutters in green and hanging balcony hovering above, the yellow taxi that's an icon and the hand pulled cycle rickshaw, Kolkata charms can make one nostalgic. Another commission work. 

Kolkata vibes


 A big commission work which demanded I incorporate few of the Kolkata elements like Howrah bridge and Dakshineswar Kali temple. Howrah bridge gave me some nightmares and I felt I had been doing some sort of Engineering drawing πŸ˜€. Playing with plenty of colours kept me going and the client loved it.
