Went to a nearby marketplace, frequented by rural folk who bring all their produce from fields and plantations. These fruit vendors, expecting their next customer, caught my attention.
Also, there was the iconic Hindustan Ambassador, which has become rare sight these days. Prior to the 90s, when automobile market was still closed to the foreign manufacturers (and owning a car was considered more of a status symbol) this was one of the only two models of car readily available in India! Of course, things have changed dramatically since then...one can see the latest BMW sedans in many parts of the country today.

It is watercolor.
Thanks everyone :)
I like the way you capture the simple life around...too good!
I have a question... Do you draw "in situ", looking at your models, or you take a photo and get inspired on it at home?
So cool
Great, fresh reference sketches in your blog!
Thank you peeps for all nice words!
>JuanCarlos,
Drawings are all at the spot itself...sometimes, if I don't have color I add a wash later.
