Landscape: A farmers endeavor – Watercolor painting

p4.jpg

Inspiration-

For us, the people of Bangladesh, farmers play a major role in shaping many families in our country. Our agricultural resources and employment sectors are estimated vastly in comparison to other sectors. As a child, I often used to watch "Hridoye Mati O Manush", a program in “Channel i", which was based on the name, which can be translated as love for the soil and the people. Also, many of you might know Shaykh Seraj Sir, who was the host of this program and he is also very famous for his love for agriculture. Such figures always leave a mark, as he did. While I was back in my hometown, I couldn't oversee the mesmerizing beauty which was uncovered before my eyes; the struggle of a farmer, amidst the all-so-polite silence which filled the atmosphere. Indeed, beauty must be appreciated.

Perspective-
An artist's heart can never truly move astray from nature. As mentioned by the greatest romantic poet, William Wordsworth in his poem "Tintern Abbey", that “Nature never did betray the heart that loved her". It is true that nature keeps on giving and we keep on perceiving from it. This piece of my art is dedicated to those farmers, all over our country, respecting their struggles and endeavors.
Tips-
• Decide your painting base
• Practice bigger strokes one at a moment, that which can cover most parts
• Meddle with bright and dull colors: I meddled with colors, as I could have used more yellow but I chose not to as I wanted to keep the greenery effect before the crops grow ripe
• Have a good understanding of the color value
• Shading is an important aspect when it comes to making the picture alive
• Practice shading
• While using watercolor, precision is not always the key but existence is
• To work on watercolors more, practice is the main key
