Goan Hotel Villa

Been busy this month and not much of painting. This Wk I was at Goa to attend business convention for three days. As usual no time for paintings and did this small sketchy one during one lunch break

Season of Wet in Wet

Monsoon is perticularly problem for many watercolorist. Paper remains damp for longtime after washes but then in some paintings it can be used to your advantage.

This full emperial size wet in wet is done from multiple photos as reference. Guess i succeded in creating mood by using wet in wet washes without adding much details :). As paper remained wet for long, did it in breaks and took me unusulaly loner time almost 4 hours
