coffee maker - wde 08-jun

For the wde hosted by Dewi, I decided to go ahead with the coffee-maker... this is used to make the kopi luwak which is the most expensive coffee in the world...
this is acrylics on 500gms strathmore water colour paper... took less than an hour... size is 22cms*28cms... it was nice to put colour to paper after a long time... this was my first shot at peboe acrylics... not sure if it was these colours or bangalore weather but the colours stayed wet for longer on palette than the camlin acrylics I use otherwise...
I started directly with brush and colour and did the negative first... like this better than the finished one...

finished painting :)

ice tea

Ice Tea was done after a long break. I made it for the wde of 01-jun. Thould I made a sketch the same weekend, I didnt start painting untill today. The last two weeks have been terribly hot and unbearable. So I was just surviving and couldnt even think of any work apart from "work" at office.

The monsoon god(megh raj) finally graced Delhi on friday and life is much better. The greens are greener, temperature nice, not much dust and on a whole more potent atmosphere for some work. I woke up at 5.40 in the morning and felt like painting. And picked up this one to work on. It is acrylics on strathamore watercolour paper. Approx size is 15cms*25cms. After completion, it found place on my closet : )
