This painting captures the vibrant pulse of an old city street — a place where heritage, motion, and human energy intertwine. Through watercolor, I have sought to express the essence of everyday urban life, where light and shadow dance upon aged buildings and familiar yellow taxis weave through the narrow lanes.
The spontaneity of watercolor allows me to preserve the fleeting atmosphere — the haze of morning light, the bustle of pedestrians, and the timeless architecture that tells stories of generations. Rather than focusing on details, I emphasize mood and rhythm — letting loose brushstrokes and fluid washes evoke a sense of nostalgia and movement.
This work reflects my deep connection to the spirit of the city — its chaos, warmth, and soul. Each layer of pigment becomes a dialogue between memory and moment, inviting viewers to feel the heartbeat of a place that is both ordinary and extraordinary.

Ideally paintings don't require much care as its a vertical surface, hence dust doesn't settle quite easily. You can gently dry dust the painting once in a month. You can also gently use a slightly damp cloth and dab it gently over the surface to capture the dust particles. You can do this once in 6 months.
Please do not use soap water, detergent, disinfectants or any chemicals over the painting as it might dissolve the colors. Paper and cloth paintings are usually framed with a glass on top, hence the artwork will remain intact. You would just need to clean the glass.
