Meditating Monk

Meditating Monk in Himalayas... 

After 3 paintings by now.. started browsing many videos of how to paint, Bob Ross was too ecstatic, Tim gagnon was very cool and similarly many more artists were providing free lessons on the internet (few links I have provided in this blog at the end) 

After several such speed browsing, thought of creating something of my own.. with no photos to follow or no videos to refer, only refered some of the techniques (how to draw snow caped mountains etc), came up with this one.. Didnt have courage to make that monk looking towards me ;) 

After painting this one, I felt yes, I can do some better ones.. 

Some of the useful channels I started following..

Love Birds Painting in a moon light - Another try

Love Birds..

One of my good friend and collegue was having his marriage anniversary in Feb, Thought of various things to gift the couples.. however ended up deciding to make a painting for them.. Wanted to make something which also represents love and togetherness.. 

Chose to paint 2 birds (Of course, not humans as its tough to paint) and moon light in the backdrop, Here it is.. 

Painted on a canvas and friend and his wife were really happy to get this.. Many more folks liked it and also gave me courage to buy few more accessories like easel and some better quality paints and brushes (I started this with cheapest available ones)

Lion & The Sunset

Lion and Sunset.. 

After my first try with Acrylic, got some interest to create some silhoutte type of paintings, thus chose to paint a lion in the backdrop of a sunset. 

If you search in internet for such things, you have abundant material with which anyone can start painting.. So here it is.. 

Even to some it looks like more of a buffalo, my 2 year old Khushi identified it as Lion and same with my son Naman who said Lion looks majestic :) That was enough for me to convince myself that I can also Paint ;)
