Here's my newest painting. It took many months, but managed to finish yesterday :)



A Possible Sunrise, Acrylic on canvas, 2009


More paintings from the series can be seen on my website

.

Started updating my website. It was completely empty and had only one page for more than a year, mainly because I am very bad at maintaining hosting accounts and custom image galleries. Now the entire thing is on Smugmug. Smugmug takes care of most of the tiresome parts. Besides, these galleries look cool enough to me. Very little to worry about. All you got to do is paint, photograph and upload. :)

None of my recent paintings are there yet. Still got tons of stuff to sort and upload. Click on image to see the newest gallery.

Had a productive day in the studio, painting. And a couple of paintings are almost complete.



A half-finished painting (turned upside-down)

We do get heavy rains these days, with thunder and lightning. Monsoon time. Mosquitoes. Paint dries slowly. Lot of power failures and Internet downtimes. At times it's good to stay disconnected. With little distractions, you get more work done.

It's too dark to take good photos. Will try tomorrow morning.

And I like my floor :)
