Standing Still

'Standing Still'
Water colour on hand made paper.

Hi friends this is my painting Standing Still.

This is a place, a gatepost in my street which is very old. Once I was moving from this place and suddenly I watched it in front of me when I reached there. No one were there at that time accept me and a silence of noon. I felt something different for that place for the first time in this much of years from my childhood till now. I have always been through that gatepost but it was the first time I observed it like that, the silence of nature, the details of bricks at the walls and an old gate but very strongly surviving till now by the time and standing still like that from always.

These things provoked me to capture that still life beauty in my painting and I just made it.

So, this is the way of observation which helped me to get a beautiful subject for my painting.
