Mighty fine! And a treat to look at, Ramesh.

Re/color, it's a grey world out there! You can't go wrong with limited color, and concentrating on warm/cool relationships. Brilliant color is like cayenne pepper . . . the right amount in the right place is a wonderful tasteful seasoning, most enjoyable, but too much on everything is painful!

The painting of the girl is delightful for the warm/cool contrasts. Consider painting across forms (the arms) to develop a better feeling of solidity.

Yes, this forum is in the doldrums . . . too bad, those who have opted out are missing a treat, seeing your sketches.
