Medium: Oil Pastels on Sandboard
Size: 18" X 16"
The inspiration behind this painting was Banaras. But I let the painting remain very abstract and that was achieved by using "less is more" approach. This was a sort of study where I tried to work with minimum strokes and played with colors. The use of red and orange for the boatman in foreground was deliberate for the obvious reason that warm colors appear nearer and therefore achieved depth. I took complete advantage of the excellent texture which the sandpaper provides.
