Golden Gate Bridge - A watercolor painting by Manju Panchal


“Watercolor condenses time and consolidates experience.”
Frank Marcello 

I have already painted the “Golden Gate Bridge” 
( “A suspension bridge that connects the San Francisco Bay and the Pacific Ocean. )
 on earlier occasions but the photo that I found recently 
caught my eye mainly because, it had quite a different 
composition, was an evening scene and also 
captured the cars racing across the bridge. This scene 
looked a bit challenging as I decided to use the watercolor 
medium and had to capture the racing cars, which 
were going to be gestural strokes and not too much of details. 

I finally painted it on Chitrapat handmade paper using 
my usual Winsor and Newton Cotman and

Watercolor painting of seascape by Manju Panchal


“Limitless and immortal, the waters are
the beginning and end of all
things on earth.”
Heinrich Zimmer

 Created a soft pastel painting of
an early morning scene at Bogmalo Beach in Goa.
Loved the reflection of the distant hills 
reflecting on the water reaching
the shoreline.
