Inducing peace

After I did my last sketch, my friend told me to do more of colour than pencil shading. So here it is ... the picture of a beautiful beach :) . The photograph is of one of the lovely beaches of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands captured by a friend who is a brilliant photographer. Really, colours brighten up the mood and this particular picture created many beautiful thoughts in my mind while I was making it. I felt very happy after I completed this and immediately rushed to show it to my friends. It took me bit longer time to complete this...but I was more sincere and patient this time. Although I could not sit for an entire day to do it, I made sure I got back to the sketch as soon as possible.

When I saw the photograph, I decided to sketch it using pencil colours. I began with the sky and, for a moment, I thought I should have used water colours for they are easier for depicting clouds. However, I stuck to my decision. Funny thing was that while doing every portion of the landscape, I thought the next portion would be easier, which was not the case.

I don't know if I will get enough time to do more as life is getting busier, but definitely looking forward to do more and more... plus, I have many unfinished art-pieces crying for my attention :( .
