Journal Pages - India :: Acrylic/Collage on paper

Here are some impressions of my recent trip to Udaiper, in Rajasthan, India. I had some time while at the trade show yesterday, and luckily, when it's slow at the booth, that means I get to paint! I'm not really an abstract artist, but all the colors and smells and non-western art are coming out in my paintings. On the left page, I used a transfer technique and transferred one of my photos of the Jagdish Temple, from the 17th century. On the right side is an interpretation of a statue of one the gods (I think it was Rama?) with some collaged photos of the temple. Anyway, I'm sure I will do some representational pieces too, but this one just had to come out!
