Ocean

This is one of my favourite paintings. This also happens to be painting with acrylic paints. This medium challenges me the most when it comes to blending different shades for realistic rendering of the subject. But this medium also helps to complete paintings in the shortest possible time with better practice.

I love beaches and they hold a very special place in my heart. They invariably soothe tense nerves and make happy moments more happier to say the least. Since I have lived closer to beach all my life I cannot even begin to imagine my life without it.

This painting sat proudly in my dining room, after I framed it, for a short while to gather some reactions from the visitors to my place. It was the first one to welcome anyone into my house staring at them as soon as they made way into the living room. I have used oil paper for its base which invariably made people think that it was a framed poster and they passed by without saying a word. In that lied the compliment for my work =). I enjoyed their reactions the most when they realised that it was indeed a painting. Those were truly my good moments!

Every medium and base has its own beauty!!
