Abstract Thursday

Digital abstract: Medium : Mixed Media.Aceo 3/5 in

This week i was experimenting on creating mixed media projects merging abstract illustrations and digital drawings.The more i explore different medium and try to merge them digitally i realize that i need to include my doodling into life size paintings both in digital as well as in mixed media.I think i like mixed media because it doesn't restrict the creative process ,and one can overcome the challenges of a particular medium.Its more of a controlled way of creativity yes am saying controlled here because i feel even if my art is spontaneous i need to have the elements in right place on a canvas or else the expression loses its forms and takes up something else which i was not looking for.

Where i belong

I remember  to promise to write in this blog about where i belong , am going to do that today . From Calcutta(India) am a Bengali by birth and i do take pride in belonging to my city its versatile and colorful culture ,there's a wider acceptance or tolerance to people of  all religion caste creed and we all thrive in that beautifully ambience's .Am going to share a few photo post here from another photographer who has agreed to help be in describing and sketching it for me as i see from my eyes my city and my people.

The Tulsi in the evenings praised and cherished by everyone,it has amazing healing medicinal properties no wonder it is considered as a holy one in India.

Colors everywhere  you can see where i get the colors in my painting.

Remembering my roots

I always think back and realize how I came such a long way what help did I get from each of the people around me. My family and friends had been and still is a huge support to me till today and i cant be thankful enough for them.Even if there were wrong people I am thankful for them to be in my life or else i would not have known what i know today things would have been different if they were not there.Relationships pays back you get what you give so i  try to give the best into
something because the more good you do to someone or something it will come back to you in someway or other.

The more struggles i went through i always asked myself why me and there was always an answer after a while for each of my questions that i asked.Each event or instances teaches us a lesson and life is the biggest teacher. Struggles and hardships brought courage and willingness to accept life as it is and will be after this

Everything that we face in our life makes us capable for the next situations and circumstances
to give more to receive more.I am never afraid of doing something new  at any given day , there had been instances where  things we at rock bottom for me but i never lost hope never stopped fighting for what i thought was right and what i believed.

Parts of my life near to me dear to me its not perfect but it's mine and its where i belong.

Abstract Thursday

The hat (Digital Illustrations)

yet another Thursday and another abstract art work titled "the hat", of late i was exploring land textures and natural patterns and was really amazing by the fact that nature has innumerable ways to textures and it expresses it self everywhere from land to tree trunk to leaves,flowers,pollens,animals and so on and so forth .How about use those textures in my paintings and hence her hat in the above mentioned artwork is inspired from the same idea.
