Lady at work Series -15

































This has been done from real life. She is actually my wife. She was peeling peas while enjoying the morning sun. Such drawings are very challenging as the subject remains constantly on the move. Thanks for viewing. Subscribe to Beautiful and Sublime by Email Subscribe in a reader

Uncared Land Series - 1



This is an uncared land with some natural vegetations. It is a warm summer afternoon. There is no one nearby. The air is clean and so is the blue sky with some white clouds. Everything seems to be so calm and tranquil at this place. Subscribe to Beautiful and Sublime by Email Subscribe in a reader

The Teenage Passion

































A deep passion for love, to love and be loved, starts with the teenage. Very few can escape this feeling. This feeling goes beyond all reasoning, engulfing both the body and mind. However this feeling gets reformed with age when reason takes over control. But none ever forgets the thrill of this romantic feeling. I myself could never. (smile). I have tried to depict this feeling in her eyes. If I have failed, then tell me. I will try again. Subscribe to Beautiful and Sublime by Email Subscribe in a reader

Grace and Beauty of the Bikini






















In this painting I tried to portray the gracefulness and beauty of this revolutionary dress. It also portrays strength, vigour and courage. The aesthetic value of this dress, which requires quite a bit of insight to fathom, can never be taken away. The colour composition of the painting must also be noticed. The combined effect of the three basic colours, red, green and blue is awesome! Subscribe to Beautiful and Sublime by Email Subscribe in a reader

Countryside as in Bengal, India

























This is a watercolour painting on paper. I tried to capture the beauty of the countryside of the state of Bengal, in the eastern part of India. This painting gave me great joy after I finished it. For some unknown reason I was holding this back from putting it up on my blog. So it is here for my valued viewers to see. If you like my art please give a thought about joining this site to help me spread my philosophy through my works. Thank you! Subscribe to Beautiful and Sublime by Email Subscribe in a reader

Passion - but not without a reason





























The reason here is art and aesthetics. It is said that passion and sensuality knows no reason. In this picture sensuality is adequately backed up by aesthetics and art. In art we can find a reason behind everything! Subscribe to Beautiful and Sublime by Email Subscribe in a reader

Looking at the shadow


























Sometimes we tend to look at some shaded areas of the past. We feel nostalgic for something we could not make our own. For sometime we turn back to live in the past. It is an inner feeling which also makes us strong for the future. Basically we get very few of what we long for. We also tend to derive lessons out of it. Again we come back and carry on with the present.

Ethereal Beauty































This has been done with watercolour and pen on paper. I tried to bring the ethereal effect which sets our minds free and gives us an expansive, eternal feeling. Now it is up to the viewer to decide how far I have been successful. Subscribe to Beautiful and Sublime by Email Subscribe in a reader

Lady Resting






















This is actually painted from real life - my wife was resting and I liked the pose. I had to do it in a great hurry as she might have turned unknowingly the other way at any moment. So I could not go into much details. Still the picture satisfied me a lot, and I thought I should share it with my viewers. Your opinion is my reward.
