Watercolour on paper

This painting belongs to a series of monochromatic ink and watercolour paintings inspired by the Sumi-e Japanese technique the artist employed in the last phase of his life. These compositions were stripped to the bare minimum where only a few strokes of ink were employed to create natural forms in an effortless approach. The above painting belongs to the 'Human Figures' series. The artist has executed the form of a woman draped in a saree, with a range of strokes and tonal variations capturing the rhythm and pattern in the image.
