Me with Alvin exploring Nutmeg trees at Sengkang Park connector!

My artist friend Alvin Mark Tan was exploring about the history of Nutmeg trees in Indonesia & Singapore and when I told him about a few Nutmeg trees along Sengkang Park Connector, he wanted to visit the place.

I joined him and we sketched the beautiful lush green trees along the waterway. Here’s my painting looking at the waterway from the park connector. I’m waiting to watch his video about this session on Alvin’s YT channel!

We even spotted a green Snake! See if you can find it in the first pic!!

Here are the studies together, all done with the same set of hues – Lemon yellow, cad red, Quinacridone rose, Pthalo blue, Burnt sienna, raw umber + Permanent white. Though I wanted to try variations in
1.saturation levels,
2.value patterns,
they all ended up with same value pattern and still need to work on getting a control in saturation of greens. But these studies helped me with other aspects like rendering and edge control!
Any inputs?

Here are some sketches I did last week, when we were in Borocay, Philippines for school holidays. This is the first time where I managed to squeeze in some comfort sketching time for myself when kids n hubby were busy playing. It’s not always easy to sit and sketch in a new place where we do have a lot of things to see and enjoy, especially with kids. All these sketches took around an hour and I still fondly remember the gusty wind (my first sketch has the place’s white sand caught on the paint), clear water and how I rushed to capture the sunset hues.  Hope to record new places in paint in future trips too.

http://myartsandcreatives.blogspot.sg/2015/05/urban-sketchers-singapore-volume-2.html

Reason for sketching this again in Gouache is, the construction materials have arrived in the nearby vacant land and I’m pretty sure this view will be gone forever. I have planned to sketch the progress in construction stages from the same view, it may take 2-3 years, but I’ll try to document the slow changes as seen through my window. Let’s see how it goes!!

Time and tide wait for none, but time here stands still for you to enjoy the lively. The tranquil water mesmerizes everyone, evokes a quiet mood to indulge within.

This painting is really after a long gap, however I used the time to learn from other artists. A scene from my neighborhood waterway, I’m striving to capture the essence of the place while still maintaining the color harmony, correct values and color temperature. There should be at least one improvement than every previous work for me to believe I’m in the correct phase of learning.
Thanks for watching

Hi,
It has been a long time since I posted any painting because I was away for vacation to Bali, Indonesia. The trip was of course enjoyable and i had a different learning experience about arts, particularly paintings. To my surprise I could see there a whole village doing paintings that too in different genres like landscapes, abstract, traditional balinese art and the interesting thing is that the paintings all show their culture and tradition. These people sell their art at their own traditional houses changed into art galleries, there are other art forms like wood carving, stone statues, silversmith, glass art etc and each village is associated with a particular art…………….. no wonder each and everything there reflects their artistic excellence!

Tanah Lot Sunset, Bali, 18″ X  24″, 18″ X 14″, Acrylic on Canvas
SOLD

           

This painting is about the famous sunset view of  a temple at Tanah Lot in Bali. The view was indeed spectacular, but I think I have captured to some extent. Nothing can match nature’s glorious colors!

The flaws in any painting can be seen only with other fresh pair of eyes. Your critics and comments about the painting are most welcome!!

Water has always been very fascinating to paint for me, particularly the reflections. But  in this painting,  I’ve attempted to capture the shining, shimmering effect of light falling on water. Another challenge was to get the correct perspective to depict the vastness of  the water as if stretches to a long distance from the viewer towards the distant mountains and the perspective here has to be achieved with receding water drops only. Hope I managed to do that. Comments are welcome!


With analogous color scheme for this painting I could get more control over the values and get the shining water drops.
