Forest Fire


Forest Fire
Watercolor on Paper
15"x22"
First Place in Santa Clara Art Association (November 2009)

This was made with color pouring technique. I prepared different colors in a thick form, then I started pouring them in different places. With tilting the paper in different directions I started forming an interesting scene that looked like fire. This technique is so much fun exploring with colors.

Tia
Pastel on Sanded Paper
16"x22"

This was a great experience for me. It was a commission art piece. I designed a portrait of "Tia" that is unique, shows her beauty and emphasises her character. It was challenging for me in the beginning. I had to work on several sketches until the idea matured. I enjoyed painting it very much. It was quite an experience.
