"Joy" my latest oil painting.
Often, before starting a painting, I enjoy surprising myself by choosing a new point of departure. It is my way of keeping my work alive. I provoke novelty until I feel like I am doing something I haven't tried before. For this painting, I started with a color background inspired by the abstract expressionism movement, keeping in mind that my little girls would be wearing red, yellow, and orange dresses.

I love the joy that comes across in this picture. Reminds me of a time when I used to run on the streets with my sister and friends playing some game or the other.
Yes, @manouche, these are little South Indian girls - you of course would know this immediately!
Great work and the level of creativity is too good here.
Thank you. It is always especially nice when the person who says something positive is an artist.
What is interesting process of painting!
If I was painting, someone came to give me a free ticket & a vacation to Hawaii for a week. I choose not to move from where I paint mr. @yurche ^_^
Here I fully agree with you, @sayedahmadsabiq! I would not have traded the opportunity to draw on the rest in various distant countries! : ))))
Thank you @yurche. It is a very personal process.

wow this is so breathtaking! I miss working with oil, but since I've been living on the road in a small van with my 3 year old boy and his father, I never find the space to explode in painting, but I do a lot of drawings at least :) Check out my page if you want, I'm new on steemit and would love to connect with other artists!
