Boomtown Blues Painting

Based on a photograph I took one afternoon in Pune, this painting captures the essence of the transformation of countryside into town. With all the popular areas in the city developed to their full extent all new development must occur in peripheral areas that have remained untouched. This is of course funded by the idea that suitable development will turn the periphery into the core, turn the new-fangled real estate into a place everyone will clamour to be. It's a boomtown alright. The truck with the cement mixer in the foreground is the focal point bringing the energy to the painting as well as to the thematic core of the work. The buildings receding into the blazing afternoon sun form a background that plays with the contrasting solidity of the nearer, hard-edged erections and the farther, softer-edged ones. This bright work would light up any room, whether it be a home office or a place of business.
