Rahi's water painting

A water painting Rahi did yesterday. She has patience ionly for waters and I think her strokes are really good.

Rahi sat down to give afew strokes but slowly realized that oils are not like waters and require patience . So she urged me to give afew strokes after some time.tHis is a result of both our efforst. One more sitting should complete the painting.

Painted this one for my friend Malti

This was painted almost two years back. I was new in Mumbai and used to visit Malti a lot and my daughter was studying in boarding. She gave me a postcard and told me that this was a house in a village in Sweden that she had visited.She wanted me to paint it. She had seen me sketching on bits of paper here and there and i mentioned that I had done a few oils back home years back.She said I can paint this for her and she would be very glad.The day I gave her the finished painting(which took some time as those days I was travelling a lot at work) , there were tears in her eyes.She was reminded of the days in Swedebn when she had gone sight seeing.This is a picture of my painting on her wall in her guest room.
