Mom , I am tired...Charcoal Portrait
We went to see the harbour city Portsmouth last week.Arjun doesn't like walking around very much and by the afternoon, he was tired...You can imagine how tough it was to drag this guy along!
I drew this last night from a photo that I took of him that day.I would call this " Mom, I am tired!" :)
This is a 15 minute charcoal sketch on normal printing paper A4 size; all I could manage whole last week, as Arjun had his half term holiday and hubby had also taken leave from his work!

Self Portrait
.........
This is a second time that I have done a self portrait; first one was about three years ago!
The reference photo was taken by my husband in summers.I always thought it was too strong,too close- as I tried to stare into the setting sun....But today as I thumbed for subjects, I came across this one and thought- "why not!"
Today being cloudy and dull, the photo didn't come out great; sorry about that.

Snippets of Life, in Watercolor
Winter and summer..together, hand in hand! I was unable to find a subject to paint last week.This is what I did instead- small watercolor sketches from my old photos.Bottom one was done first, then I decided that 'less' was 'more',and did the top one with very light amounts of color. I like that one better!
All these were different photos, I just put them together.
