but obviously not as much of a regular as the other gentleman as it doesn’t show. I think soon I’ll find that I’m doing a series on people eating paan in Bangladesh!
“Ashulia man 2” wip, oil on a 10″ X 12″Canvas board.

Update: August 26, 2007 : Finally managed to progress this further. phew!! now he looks a lot less like he’s eating. have to fix that next time.
Update: September 2, 2007 : One more layer and I’m going to consider it done. The next one is on my mind.
I’m off in a bit to replenish my stock of yellow ochre both in oil and acrylics.
Update: September 8, 2007 : Finished, signed and posted on Maya.







It’s good to see the progress of the painting. Can’t wait to see when you add the finishing touch! Thanks for visiting my blog
Thank you for the encouragement. I liked your take on the last topic very much.
I love seeing how you progress through a painting. I’m fascinated with the human and love drawing them. You are an inspiration. Thanks so much for sharing all you do.
Thank you Kay
People are my passion too. I like to see the steps side by side. It helps me see what I liked in a previous step and lost but want to try and bring back etc. and of course I love to share!
