More Indian Inspiration

This time when I went to India I took some photos of subjects I thought I might like to paint. I decided to paint today and this is what I painted from the photo that I took. It is not exactly like the photo as I decided to choose what I wanted to paint from the photo. I found the figures in sarees really hard to paint so I just painted 2 lol! there were more ladies in the photo and some men. But I think it looks ok with just those two ladies standing and the lady sitting down. By the way the lady sitting down is selling chilled lassi (butter milk). I should have used some more techniques in painting that pot of chilled lassi but I just forgot to use them.
