"Little Black Dresses" is a composition of three dancing women all in shimmering light that reveals the various shades of black: green, blue, purple but all the little black "coctail dress". The gyrations of the dancers makes the viewer feel the beat. The artist applies her paint with the palette brush giving the whole a moasic effect.
I have noticed that people who stay in a desert invariably wear beautiful, bright and colorful clothing. Whether that helps them to keep their spirits up or to stand out against the arid monotonous background, I am not sure, but these people have always fascinated me.
"Chit-chat" is all about friends getting together and generally having a laugh over anything and everything. I have tried to depict this moment through my favorite subject- Indian desert dwellers.
I have tried to give it some texture using gesso, texture paste and butter paper. This is on stretched canvas and can be hung as is.
I have grown up looking at beautiful depiction of animals in varied designs and colors in our folk art. That has inspired me immensely and this is my take on birds sitting on a tree. This comes with a dull- golden frame.
