Oil on oil paper 12"x18"
A wise person once advised me "Don't ever throw your paintings away... you may never know what they are worth! Even if you feel you don't like it now, who knows you may like it yourself another day! ". Ever since none of my works have bid adieu.
This is one such work from archives, an exercise done to get as many colours as possible just using the basic colours (RGB). It didn't mean much to me when I finished it and hence kept it away. To me it wasn't anything more than just rendering of basic colour combinations that I was asked to.
However when I picked this up recently, I was reminded of the saying "Life is a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get", for an artist I would like to say, "Life is a palette of colours, you never know what gets created !". In this case its not just rendering of colours that made me post this here today, I guess its also the perception with which I see it.
After all an art work gets it's life when viewed and appreciated by eyes that can see and perceive it's beauty else it's just a piece of work created for the sole happiness or satisfaction of the artist.. I ponder!
