Finalist in the AME Bale Travelling Scholarship

I recently had four paintings and two drawings selected and exhibited as part of the AME Bale Travelling Scholarship exhibition in Melbourne. I was a finalist in the scholarship category as well the seperate drawing and painting categories. I flew down to Melbourne for the opening and it was a great night. Here are some photos of the selected works. Apologies for the low resolution of a couple of the photos, I'll post better ones once they're taken.

New Drawing

Here's a recent drawing I did of my sister-in -law Sneha, while I was in India. 

It's graphite and white chalk on toned paper.
