Acrylic on tiny tin box

Tried another tiny painting on my little tin box. This time I worked with acrylics—only my second time using them after a casual rough painting earlier. I must say, I probably should have bought larger tubes instead of the small 9 ml ones, though there’s nothing wrong with experimenting with the smaller set. The image is painted from a photograph I took during our Silk Route journey last year.

Street View

Another painting on my tiny tin box with a limited palette. This time, I fully went with gouache since I needed to use those tubes :)

Digha Snaps

I tried making a few quick, small cartoon-style sketches from some pictures I took at Digha.

Way to Sandakphu

From a photo I took during our Sandakphu Trek.

At Gwalior Monument

Today’s sketch meet at Gwalior Monument. I chose to work my way—the same place, yet different views, capturing little portions as seen through my eyes.

Same Canvas, New Flow

Another progression in my small paintings. The canvas sizes remain the same; I’ve just switched to a box with a larger mixing area.

Darjeeling

Darjeeling Town, sketched from a photograph I took earlier. A small attempt to capture the charm of the hill town.

Urban sketching on location with my tiny setup

After doing four studies over the last two days, today I stepped out with it. I’m not fully satisfied with the results yet, but I want to continue and explore more.
