After enjoying some crazy, epic train journeys through India in 2003, I had said I would do something with the tickets to commemorate that trip. In December last year I spent LOTS of time and money putting this together, showing the tickets and travel in chronological order over a map where I spent most of my time. The photo in the centre is from that trip, but this photo of the overall picture doesn't really do it justice.

'The Ganges at Varanasi, India', Oil on Board, 2011.
The photo doesn't quite get the colour right of this one but you get the jist of it.

'Little Vagator Beach, Goa, India', Oil on Board, 2011.

'From Chapora Fort, Goa, India', Oil on Board, 2011.

Three quick watercolour sketches of upcoming India oil paintings, I often do this if I want to get an idea of the palette I'll use.
