TRANQUIL (Theme # 87)

All images from google images, Calligraphy sketched and scanned.
Calligraphy reads 'Shanthi' which means Peace.

Theme # 5 Colors

Thanks everyone for all your comments...It is just wonderful to read them...

This is an attempt at minimalism.. sometimes leaving huge blank space on the canvas brings out the depth of the colors applied..The filter gallery in photoshop is just fabulous for twirling colors around..

No credits/inspiration for this piece..lots of photoshop and a bit of imagination..

Theme # 4 - Umbrella

Participating in the 100 themes challenge is a good learning experience... Doing this picture, I learnt how to make silk texture with folds on photoshop..I enjoyed the entire creation process..hope you all enjoy this too..

Theme No 3 - Music

The 'Sitar Player' is a tribute to one of my favourite Indian artists Raja Ravi Varma. I sketched the figure and scanned the image. The image was colored on photoshop. Then I created the background on photoshop and superimposed the figure on the background.

The inspiration behind this picture is this lovely painting:
