83: Watercolour Sketch: Mobo's Hotel, an old colonial hotel building, Pune

Mobo's Hotel... A beautiful colonial structure on Dhole Patil Road, Pune, India... It has a queer interplay of several sloping roofs... Surely must have been one of the best designed houses during its time... Unfortunately now modified to house weird commercial shacks etc & left very ill-maintained... An artist's delight all the same.. Its a blessing one can take artistic liberties... this one done today with the Urban Sketchers.Pune.

75: Pen & Ink: Park Bench

Scouting around for a sketcheable scene around Law College premises during one of our Urban Sketchers Pune session, this queer little bench could not have missed anybody's eye.. Some prankster had filled up the "C" from "Clover" engraved in the stone but I depicted it in its original form.
