About Watercolor Landscapes & Cityscapes
I don’t believe in over-complicating the process. In my sessions, we focus on wet-on-wet techniques and managing light, not just copying a reference photo. Whether it is a chaotic market scene or a serene village street, my goal is to teach you how to observe the scene yourself, rather than just showing you how to paint it.
Finding Your Own Voice
When I paint a city street corner or a rustic lakeside house, I am looking for the story behind the light. My landscape and cityscape series are built on the fundamental principles of perspective, water control, and understanding shadow, which I emphasize in every class.
What We Explore
- Light and Atmosphere: From the morning sun in a rural village to the sharp shadows of urban architecture, capturing light is the hardest and most rewarding part of watercolor.
- Technique: We work with wet-on-wet for soft, atmospheric backgrounds and dry-brush for specific textures, like weathered wood or concrete.
- Composition: I teach you how to place figures in a scene so they feel like they belong, not just like they were pasted on top.
Why Learn with Me?
I have conducted workshops everywhere from IIT BHU to Sunder Nursery. If you are tired of generic art tutorials, my sessions offer a real, grounded experience. Whether you join my monthly live online courses or an in-person workshop, you will learn to handle your brush with confidence. My focus remains on helping you develop an original style—one that is not copied from others, but born from your own observation.
- Language: Instructions provided in Hinglish (Hindi and English mix).
- Format: Live interactive Zoom or Google Meet sessions.
- Outcome: You will not just finish a painting; you will understand why the colors and shapes work.
