Back to the Basics
Here again, wanted to get back to sketching to refresh my skills. Found some beautiful portraits at http://www.abhijitsplanet.com/pratibimb/index.php?x=browse. I did this boy with pencil first but could not get the colors out of my head, that's the spirit of this picture. Curiosity in those eyes took me back to all 'holi fun' I had in my childhood. So had this adventurous try...watercolor with pencil. I could have wasted my 3 days of work any moment, but I am so happy I tried..loved the effect.

Apollo bandar, Mumbai
As I started looking for pictures for my Mumbai Theme, I realized I hardly know about my city. Few tourist places? thats all I know? My watercolor paintings brought me some new friends recently, couple fine arts photographers. And I started knowing and loving Mumbai through their lenses. This beautiful shot of sea near Apollo Bandar is my try to paint this http://www.abhijitsplanet.com/pratibimb/index.php?showimage=160
My hearty thanks to Mr. Abhijit Dharmadhikari.

My Sweetheart
And she asked me to draw one of her childhood picture. This was Ameyaa's first experience at sea. She was sleepy after afternoon nap, at the same time thrilled to see so much water in front. Her subtle smile and her half open eyes..I could not capture her properly in this one..am not good at portraits yet, I admit :)
