73: Pen & Watercolour Wash: From Culvert to Shed

Colour added to the earlier Pen & Ink sketch after extracting a photocopy of the line-work before rendering one with Pen & Ink & the other with Watercolours.. 

This was the  unlikely sight in a corner of an otherwise well-planned college premise... 

A path leading to a culvert, culvert leading to a quaint little brick-structure with sloping tin-roof... complete with a tree-shadow fallen over it.. 

An artist's delight nevertheless.

71: Pen & Wash Sketch: Fergusson College Main Building Rearside, Pune, India

From the campus of Fergusson College, Pune, with its great colonial monuments of Architecture ...

Sometimes it is hard not to render the sketches with colour although the black & white version looks good too.. My friends & colleagues prevail upon me to let my black & white sketches be... but the colourist in me takes over nonetheless... & so as per their advice, have started taking photocopies of the b/w sketch in its initial line-work form itself so as to have fun with colour on it giving me the best of both worlds & yet keep it plein air... at least in its initial part. So that it now transpires into a study in comparison... of B/W & Colour... & therefore posting the B/W version yet again... just below this image... all done with the Urban Sketchers Pune.
