I have been missing from my blog for some time but it is not that I have not been painting at all. Did this painting of an Alouette-III helicopter fitted with floats. This aircraft is capable of landing on water. Flying it was a pleasure. Gives you the pleasure of flying as well as sailing ! Was even paid a visit by two Dolphins once when we had landed off the Gujarat coast. That is an experience only some lucky sailors get. Anyway a friend wanted me to do this for him... was more than happy to oblige.
Wonderful painting and story. Great to hear from you again :).
ReplyDeleteStay inspired!
Hello Asit, nice to see a new painting from you. Superb rendering of the chopper.
ReplyDeleteGlad to see your post again Asit, it looks just great! I can feel the momentum of the helicopter in your brushes! Yes ,only lucky few can fly them and paint them too, sharing the joy in the process.
ReplyDeleteIt is so good to see a post from you, Asit.
ReplyDeleteYour painting is so beautiful and detailed, and the atoll in the background is gorgeous. It must be such an awesome sight to see for real.

I'm very glad to see you posting again, Asit, and what a beautiful painting! I like a lot the contrast of the sleek glass and metal of the helicopter on the rough textured background.
ReplyDeleteWelcome back, Asit.
ReplyDeleteThis is wonderful as always. Thank you for sharing your fascinating experiences.
Fabulous painting, Asit. Your friend will love it and the memories associated with it. I love it and your story too! xx
ReplyDeleteAlthough I like your helicopter Asit, I can't help noticing how well you have portrayed distance in this painting. Lovely work.
ReplyDeleteI like how you've painted the helicopter but the bg really makes it - lots of visual interest and color to play off the grey copter.
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot friends for all the kind words.
