2/28/2019 0 Comments The Idea of a PlaceThese two pictures (bottom row) are my in progress pictures. They are pictures of when this was just an idea, and I hadn't started painting yet. The place represented in my art is Bangalore, Karnataka, India. It's where I'm from. I moved there when I was 8 and lived there for 8 years. It's my second home. The city is really polluted and there aren't many birds. However, there are a large number of crows. The crows are the the view from my 9th/11th floor apartment flat.
I think the hardest thing for me was to paint the crows without getting it everywhere. I also needed to cover the painting below it that I was planning to do but didn't. I think making the birds look like they were flying was the most successful piece. I also gave an unintentional feeling of serenity and calmness which was great too! :) I started by priming the canvas. Then I painted the background a blue-grey to show the morning sky. When that dried I drew the crows and painted them black.
