Chitrasante-2017 - some interesting paintings

About my visit to Chitrasante-2017 I have written in my previous posts.I have shared the glimpses of Chitrasante 2017 and Bhuddha paintings exhibited there. In this post sharing some unique paintings which were exhibited there. There were loads of paintings, each one was unique. I can share very few from those.

The below ones  are the paintings of ghats of Kaashi. When I had visited Kaashi, I had seen many artists were painting sitting in a boat. This artist must also have painted in the same way. Such paintings require a lot of concentration.

These are paintings of wildlife. These look like photos rather than paintings. Hats off to the artist for his perfection.

This is very interesting, different versions of Monalisa. The rightmost one is Indian version, wearing ethnic jewels. I could not guess about the painting in the middle. If you can guess please share your opinion.

Chitrasante happens only once in a year and for one day. But in one day we can see and enjoy thousands of paintings. Every year it makes us to wait for next Chitrasante.

Work In Progress on Wednesday-Sospeso Art

Most of the craft lovers know about sospeso art, this is also known as 3D decaupage. Already I have done many decoupaged articles. Trying sospeso on a pot. The pot is ready with basic decoupage.

 I have chosen a design of bunch of small, flowers. Each flower is very small, and it is taking time to cut and give the 3D effect. Finally that work is also completed.

Now I have to attach the flowers to the pot. Hope to complete it soon. Will share once completed with the tutorials.

Until then-

Love , laugh and live the life to the fullest,

Visit to Chitrasanthe-2017

Chitrasante is an event which happens every year in Bangalore , organised by Chitrakala Parishad. About my last year's visit to Chitrasante, I have already written a blogpost: Chitrasante 2016 at Chitrakala Parishat- Ocean of paintings. 

Chitrasante is like an auspicious event to art lovers. This year there were more than 1300 artists exhibiting their paintings. One can see everywhere paintings- the magic created by artists on canvas. It is not possible to post all the photos I have clicked in one post. Let me start with paintings of Bhuddha:

These are just glimpses of the paintings exhibited there, like a drop from an ocean. There are thousands of paintings, in which we could see the efforts and talents of the artists. I have more to share about Chitrasante in coming posts.

Love , laugh and live the life to the fullest,
