watercolour sketches-Konkan area







Konkan is a coastal area near Pune, at 4 hours car drive distance.I go there every 6 months for painting. after painting some spots, i also sketch in watercolour with out using pencil atall.



The houses in Konkan area have sloping roofs to take care of heavy rains with wind.Every house has a verandah, a semi open space outside for hot seasons.These spaces are multipurpose, used as entrance lobby, storage ares , sleeping ares and some times even for goats and cows.



the entire ares is full of paddy fields and coconnut groves.I just love the rustic feeling of such places.
