'A city is not gauged by its length and width, but by the broadness of its vision and the height of its dreams.'
--- Herb Caen
I participated in a painting/giveaway contest {On Instagram} where we given some prompts to paint on {plus some other conditions}. I really enjoy these art challenges however I do not participate to win {There are wonderful artists there and there's no chance, frankly}. I participate to experience the process of trying different kinds of paintings inspired by the prompts these art challenges provide.
Here's my take on Cityscape and desert.
'If the desert allows the trees to proliferate, the desert shall disappear! Therefore the desert has no choice but to be the enemy of trees.'
---Mehmet Murat Ildan
How do you like them? Any tips and suggestions {I am a beginner and always look for tips/ideas}?

DeleteYour art is so goodTarang. The beautiful thoughts behind the desert trees, and the colours are lovely. The cityscape and desert is really wonderful. Happy PPF :D)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Sue! I'm glad you liked it. :)
Deletegreat movement in the tree painting. I am thinking that in the desert painting, you have the light coming from the left side of the piece, so the shadow of the dead tree is on the right... yet the shadow on the mountains is on the left. I don't see where that shadow is coming from. Just a thought... you are doing great.
ReplyDeleteUmm...Maybe there's a bigger mountain behind? Just a thought because I used a reference photo for this painting. But thank you so much noticing {will study this} and leaving an encouraging comment! :)
DeleteI love you desert paintings! Beautifully done ...
