I pulled out my tiny canvases again, this time working in acrylics. The more I use this medium, the more I enjoy its bold colors, and versatility.
The first painting is based on a photograph I took in Kumartuli, capturing an artisan at work shaping crafts for idols. I wanted to convey the atmosphere of concentration and craftsmanship that fills those workshops.
The second painting comes from a photograph taken during our trip to Kankrajhor. The rustic hut surrounded by greenery brought back memories of the quiet beauty of the place, and painting it was a pleasant way to revisit that journey.
Both pieces are small in size, but each carries a little story and a memory worth preserving in paint.
