Thicket - digital painting

The digital media can never stop to amaze me.  The opportunities for an artist to try out ideas is limitless.  Here is one of my favorite subjects - nature at its glory - just a clip of branches and leaves.

Meylum - drumming for auspicious occasions - digital painting


Meylum
digital painting
size 9x12 inches

The Meylum is a wonderful drum instrument played squatting on the ground comfortably- legs crossed. Having its roots in South India, this instrument is still played during weddings and auspicious occasions and in Temples along with the Naadaswaram (pipe instrument).  I decided to paint this digitally when I still have the chance to portray it, hoping that this fast dying art will live on forever.
