One from Rajasthan!

Rajasthan always evokes emotions of bright and bold colour and exotic expanses of landscapes which are unique to this western state of India. I tried to combine both in this landscape with the focus on the colourful ladies fetching water. The lonely and bewildered goat acts as an eye-stopper and also as a contrast to the blithe group of colourful ladies. Done on Indian hand-made paper, 71 cm x 52 cm. Thanks for looking and comments welcome!

  1. Rajasthan was one of my favorite stops in India! You captured the feeling of the place in a subtle, breath-filled way. Nicely done. (But I wish the goat was a cow, my prejudice!!)
