107: Oil Pastel Sketch: The Flower Vase

The Flower Vase... my favourite ceramic vase... 

An Oil Pastel Still Life sketch...

Oil Pastels... a versatile medium... the effect can be close to oil paint or acrylics & much easier to handle... although a very tricky medium nevertheless... it may not behave the way you want it to at times.... but fun all the same.

68: Acrylic Painting: Art & Music fusion-1/2

Early this month, Dr. Martin Clayton & Dr. Laura Leante, ethnomusicologists from Durham University, UK, conducted a workshop on Khayal and Visual Art as part of their research project to which I had the honour of being invited to participate in at Studio7 in Pune.

We, a group of 6 artists of various backgrounds were asked to create works of art based on audio clips of a Khayal in Raag Raageshri, after a brief description of the raag sung by singer Surashree Joshi, a disciple of noted singer Late Smt. Veena Sahasrabuddhe, a leading Indian vocalist and composer of Hindustani classical music whose singing style had its roots in Gwalior gharana.

As per the brief by Surashree & the subsequent audio clip, the vibrations I felt while working on this painting were of sheer richness & magnificence of Indian Classical music by itself plus the fact that it used to be aptly performed in the darbars, mahals & havelis of yore. And so, what flowed through my brushes in this one of two paintings was the rich architectural features of these very darbars, mahals & havelis in the form of rich arches & columns etc. Actual rich gold & silver pigments were used to depict this. The steps in the foreground also represent the ups & downs of the swars or notes on the musical octaves that flow throughout the raag. All in all, the feel of the khayal was nothing but simply"Rich".
