136: Soft Pastels Sketch: Cowasjee Dinshaw Hall & Library, Pune Camp, India

Cowasjee Dinshaw Hall & Library, East Street, Pune Camp, India.

Sitting on the busy city streets alongwith the Urban Sketchers Pune group is indeed a heady thing to do. There's a peculiar fire in the atmosphere to do your best. Just cannot catch up with others doing multiple sketches within the 1 & 1/2 hours that we get. Plus most of the finishing work remains to be continued after getting back home. But its definitely fun nevertheless.

The Nursery at Savitribai Phule Pune University...

The morning Sun peeking through the trees... casting interesting light & shadow patterns on the ground. It was really an intense light there from the right top... Very challenging to capture too. An artist is never satisfied at the end of the day.
