Watercolor paintings of Ganpatipule beach by Manju Panchal

  “ Colors like features, follow the changes of emotions.” Pablo Picasso 

Ganpatipule beach, located on the Konkan coast of Maharashtra, is a clean, tranquil, and pristine beach known for its scenic beauty, coconut palms and the historic 400 year old Swayambhu Ganpati temple. 

We were at this beautiful beach last August and and I captured the monsoon landscape at different times of the day and so began my series of Watercolor paintings on my most favourite subject “Seascapes”. I got everything that I was looking for. 

Water, the elixir of life, one of the most fundamental requirements for life in any form, is somehow my source of inspiration. Moreover, I spent all my life close to sea and I feel, painting a seascape is more about capturing water and sky. It is about expressing emotion, movement, and silence all at once. Through these simple limited palette paintings, I get to explore color, light, texture and atmosphere in unique ways.

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 

Camlin Artists water color tubes

Water color painting of Sand dunes at the seashore

"At the beach life is different, 

Time doesn't move hour to hour

But mood to moment.

We live by the currents, 

Plan by the tides

And follow the sun."
