Abstracts / Textures / Portraits

I am in USA and started working on a portrait . Happy to be back to my place and start painting . I tweaked this image in photoshop before I started working on this. Working with darks and using only 3 colors! I had taken this picture on a street on our way to Araku valley. He wss riding a bicycle and I noticed this man with beard and nice sharp features . I had to stop the car, and asked this person if I can do his portrait . He was more than happy to let me take his pictures and appreciated my interest. Your comments will be appreciated.

A portrait I did some time ago on 8" x 10" porcelain tile, with several kiln firings  to make the colors permanent.  Won best of the show award and was displayed in  a Gallery for a year.  Yes! It is my daughter! 

A Realism painting, Face Study.  I was so interested in studying the great masters works. This is one of my study I did  2 years ago. Unfortunately I do not remember the Artist name.  Working on porcelain is challenging. I am happy to achieve this kind of quality on porcelain.
