O Yeah this is a Early morning scene of Autumn in West Bengal. Friends every Bengali likes Autumn because it is the time of the Bengals biggest and main festival "Durga Puja" yes we worship Goddess Durga in Autumn and enjoy 4 days a lot like we go to celebrate whole night,sleeping during day time, eating in the restaurent a lot,so for this celebration we started shopping before one month like new cloths, shoes,cosmetics etc etc.Goddess Durga come in Bengal in every year from Himalaya in Autumn.
what should I say,Bengals looks aweeeeeesoooooome at this time of Autumn,flower fall just rap the garden floor as like a carpet,you can see parijat every where in this time in Bengal and its fall a lot as u can see in my card,many many flower can be seen at this time, so in my card this women is Goddess durga and her cute little son ganesha in her lap,I drawn her with three eyes as Goddess Durga have, color her and dress up her as like Bengals village girl,I used some cloths for her,I made this boat at first drawn it and then I ater color it and used some straw.
Oh the sky and the water,I was very scared when I was making this sky,I could not understand it is possible for me or not to make an effect of early morning scene in the sky as it is always happen in West Bengal and its effect on water,but I am happy with the result.
I drawn the tree cut its every brunches and attach some flowers and petals which I bought.
