Wardrobe angels

Now is the time to study the behaviour of vertical and horizontal lines. My object of study was my dressing table, wardrobe and some boxes on it.

Have a great week ahead :)

Battery between fingers

This time I am holding a battery in my hand and added some shadow and lighting. I really like the way reflection has came out. So cool.

My empty hand

I think it would be better if I make my base solid before  going into the world of watercolor, so I decided to teach myself sketching or classic style of drawing, and I came across  a book by Betty edwards and now I will share some of my new sketches with you all. Hope that I will enjoy the proceess of drawing.

This is my empty hand sketch. I made this as an excercise in the book, pretty cool way of teaching by Betty edwards, I recommend this book(drawing from the right side of the brain) to anyone who wants himself to draw well.

Stay sweet and happy

Shadow and lighting with colorful background

This time I painted the scene with grey hue and colorful background. I really like the way background is affecting the composition. Pretty neat :)

No doubt, it's a really good exercise to learn shadow and lighting...now I just need to practice practice and practice a lot ;)

Shadow and lighting

Using grey color with a little mix of red to create the effect of light and shadow, imagining the arrow as the sun, I played with the colors to create this effect of depth...pretty cool aye...  :)

A wave

                                                                             Ocean wave

Wow, I really miss New Zealand for it's beauty of ocean...
This ocean wave reminds me of the time I spent during my work in NZ. I made this painting from the book of Mr.Terry Harrison's Painting water in watercolor.  I enjoyed so much painting this, and I can surely see that there is lots and lots of room for improvement, but hey you got to start somewhere, right?. I assure, it will get better and better :).

Thanks for stopping by

Stay sweet and happy :)
