I was recently checking out some beautifully done oil and water paintings online and I realized how crazy it was that a great deal of artists from before the industrial revolution were obsessed with nature. There are endless paintings of forests, rivers, clouds, starry nights and everything nature. Being stuck in the pandemic I have been out of nature's touch for a long time now and its so sad that we are missing out all this beauty the earth has to offer.
Being brought up in the Himalayas I have these memories of beautiful scapes that would always leave me breathless. Considering that I have been living in cities for the last 4-5 years of my life, I realized this was the perfect opportunity for me to reminiscence some beautiful memories of my childhood and work a little bit on my lighting and texturing skills.

Added a little noise to make it look old and rusty.
Also the colors used are very bright and over saturated to mimic the oil paintings of nature.
For every summer my parents took me to my Grandmother's place. Now whenever I imagine my nani's place,
It feels like it was always summer there.
Winters were always special, I have never witnessed more peace and tranquillity than there is after a snowstorm. Living in the mountains one keeps on being reminded that there are a million ways in which nature gives us shelter. We all live and exist on the kindness of mother earth.
Clay renders of the scenes, nothing very technical. Just some foliage and octane scatter.
I remember late night long walks with my father just to gaze the stars, we get to see the million stars in the sky back at my home.
The city lets you see only 4.
Have you ever sat under a tree's shade on a sunny afternoon? It feels real good :)
I had so much fun making these, every morning when I worked on these illustrations it felt like I had been teleported to somewhere far in the lap of nature for a while. Away from all the hassle of adult life. Hope you enjoyed watching these. For more of my work visit my Instagram. Thanks
