Pastel landscape painitng by Manju Panchal

" Choose only one master - Nature " Rembrandt

I decided to capture this scene, which I came across while we 

were traveling on the coastal roads of Goa,  using 

soft pastel medium. I primarily use

 Mungyo and Kohinoor Toison Dor

 in the initial layers and give the final

 touches of Sennelier pastels. 

( Purchased from Amazon.in ).

A morning at Matheran - A soft pastel painting by Manju Panchal

The soft pastel painting below has been inspired by an early

  morning scene from Matheran, a beautiful hill station 

 close to Mumbai. The sun rays  lit up the foliage as it perforated

 through the space  between the wild growth on either sides.

Soft pastel painting of a landscape by Manju Panchal

" If I create from the heart; nearly everything works, if from head

almost nothing." Marc Chagall

The soft pastel painting below has been inspired

by my early morning visit to Karnala Bird Sanctuary.

The sunlit pathway and the surrounding thick

vegetation growth made for a good composition.

The light and contrast in the scene appealed 

a lot to me.

Soft pastel painting of a landscape from Coorg by Manju Panchal

This is a beautiful scene that we came across while we were on our 

holidays  at Coorg, a beautiful hill station in Karnataka. 

The morning walks through the lush greenery would 

rejuvenate us. The place is a paradise for both 

artists as well as photographers.

Morning walk in Coorg - Soft pastel painting by Manju Panchal

I am a self taught artist based at Andheri, Mumbai. This is my first post in this blog and I am grateful to Arti Chauhan to include me as a member here.

The painting below is of a beautiful landscape as seen in Coorg, a hill station in Karnataka, where we
spent our holidays on three different occasions. It is an amazing place with coffee plantations and lush green surroundings. I have used soft pastels to create this art work on Fabriano Tiziano paper.

Presently I am busy creating landscape paintings for my upcoming solo exhibition in Gallerie Leela, Andheri East, Mumbai. Inspired and motivated by the beauty of nature, I am using my personal plein air sketches and photographs to create my works.
