Hi I’m Megha, an artist based out of Bangalore. I have been doodling and painting for as long as I can remember. Around three years back, I shifted to oil paints and absolutely fell in love with it. My work comprises painting a variety of subjects in a realistic style.

I've been wanting to paint this skyscraper for a while now. With this, my small painting series has come to an end for now. All my recent artworks will be available for sale on my website soon, so stay tuned! So excited to share these works with you✨

Also, I really try to post consistently. I find it really stressful to see an incomplete painting next to me while I'm constantly working on a laptop trying to finish deadlines but then say hello to adulting! Meanwhile, thankyou so much for sticking around😊

Been a while since I've posted one of these! Stage

Been a while since I've posted one of these! Stages of my recent work. It's always interesting to collate these pictures to see the progression😊

Presenting to you, my favourite work so far. Will definitely recreate this on a larger canvas🌿

I think this is one of the prettiest forest clearings I've ever seen. As we were crossing this place, I instantly knew that I wanted to paint it and clicked as many pictures as I could.

Story time:
During our trek, our trek leaders made us pause at several places, told us about the different trees in the area, what to do/what not to do on a trek and how to leave the mountains a bit better than we found them.

We crossed several beautiful moss laden trees on our way which were indicative of the fact that there has been very less human interference in those areas. So glad to know that there are still places which are somewhat safe from us (atleast for now).

Isn't it amazing that forests thrive in chaos while our manmade gardens just collapse if we fail to tend them for a week?

Big thank you to @indiahikes and @akshayaralikatti for this truly amazing experience.

Who knew painting moon and some clouds would be so out of my comfort zone😅 Will paint some more night skies soon.

I just realized that I've never painted a night sky with stars and moon! Will give it a shot in my next.

Oil paint Layer 1 Vs Layer 2🎨
I always click multiple pictures of my painting in different stages as it helps me understand what's working and what's not working. For instance, in this study, I felt that a darker background will bring out the facial features better. Although I haven't changed the skin tones that much, by just introducing a darker background, the contrast is much more evident.

This technique, called chiaroscuro, was first used by Renaissance painters where they placed the figure in a dark background and created a 3D effect with the help of the resulting contrast.

Here's a very special painting for you all. As some of you would know, I had gone for a trek two weeks back. The places we visited on our way were breathtakingly beautiful and will serve as an inspiration for me in many more paintings to come✨

Also, this is the tiniest painting I've ever done! It's so refreshing to work on smaller canvases for a change. Will be converting some of these pieces into larger canvases.
