Boats


White Ferry, Watercolour on paper (14" x 22")


The Day Off, Watercolour on paper (14" x 22")


These were done a couple of years ago. I really enjoy paintings boats in watercolour. I wish I lived somewhere in the coastal area so I could paint as many of them as I wanted.
All comments and critiques are most welcome.

Boats by the beach

Hello everyone!
Wish you all a very happy Diwali. I hope you all have a great time.

I completed this painting from a photograph last evening. I am satisfied with it for certain reasons and not so satisfied for others. I particularly dont like the way I have divided the spaces on the canvas. I am thinking about cropping this one a little bit. But I am not sure about which crop would work best. So I created the following digital images from the photograph of the painting. Please take a look and tell me which one you think is the best crop.


Case 1. No cropping


Case 2



Case 3



Case 4



Case 5



Case 6

Please tell me which one you like best and why. I would love to hear the technicalities or emotional responses that are involved here. It will help to know a thing or two about how artists think.
Thank you so much!
P.S. Any other suggestions or criticisms are also most welcome.

Busy Evening


Busy Evening (8" x 20"), Watercolour


First of all, let me wish very happy Dussehra to everyone. I hope everyone had a great time!


This painting was done from a photograph of a fishing port. I am happy with the overall mood of the painting, although not much with the way the reflections are handled.


Thanks for stopping by. All comments and critiques are most welcome.
