"The Blue Door"
Watercolor
11"x15"
Latest watercolor work.I saw this old wooden door on my last trip to Rishikesh.The paint was peeling-I couldn't decide which color was used to cover the other!The door was also modified and cut on the bottom to adjust with the slope of the ground.It was a modest dwelling with moss covered walls but an artist's eye can spot beauty in strange places....Don't you agree? Have a great Sunday.
I think it is beautifully done, Arti. I've not seen a door cut like that before so I find that so interesting too. You also did a beautiful job on the bricks and mossy cement.
ReplyDeleteI have not seen one like that, either..thats why it appealed to me.A poor man's house, but it has a beauty of its own.Thanks Sherry!
DeleteI am so fond of this kind of simple beauty around us as subject. And regarding the painting its fantastic. The wall, the bricks. the door and the towel beautifully executed.
ReplyDeleteYou are right, Ayan its a simple yet beautiful subject.Thank you for appreciating.

DeleteYou're absolutely right...we do see art in the most peculiar places!! LOL
ReplyDeleteThat's why we're artists..always looking for that perfect piece. I love this watercolor Arti. The brickwork is perfect as well!!
Thank you Hilda, when I finished it, it looked too dark to me and I contemplated painting it again, this time in light washes...but it seemed like too much work!LOL

DeleteThis is fabulous Arti. I agree an artist does see beauty in the strangest places sometimes. I wonder around with my camera in tow a lot of the time these days as I never know what exciting sights are around that corner to paint. Take care. xx
