Wishing for rain ...

It's been sizzling around here these days.

One way to cooling off myself is to escape to one of those rainy days in the winter by painting ...

I have just finished this painting using some photos that I have taken from my studio sessions for references (see below).  It took some creativity and imagination :)

Happy New Year from Paris!

It's been raining everyday in the city.
Wouldn't it be nice to be sitting in a cafe reading your favorite story - with a Modigliani?

After a long, long break (almost a year and a half), I've finally got to paint again! This was the longest break I've ever had since I started my painting career, which was depressing but unavoidable ...
Anyway, I'm back to my canvas, and open to any comments including constructive suggestions from anyone who view my paintings here.

New York Cityscape (Karin Jurick's DSDF challenge) - Day 5

Today I added a few more details and gave it a final touch as follows: Added an imaginary red SUV in the middle to help flow of red. Added a bit more blue tone to the distant buildings to create 'smoky' urban atmosphere. Added another small traffic signal post and a lamppost. And little more details on the buildings. It was a really fun experience and many thanks to Karin Jurick for giving us this great opportunity to participate and share with others. Here is the final painting.

New York Cityscape (Karin Jurick's DSDF Challenge) - Day 4

Today I added more details to the painting - windows on the buildings, features on the cars, people on the street, etc. I think I can finish it by tomorrow.
