Dear Steemians,

Today I am posting the process of the water color Illustration which is done for the third episode of the serial 'Atithi' being published in 'TARANGA' weekly magazine.

EPISODE - 3

'Veda' was slightly nervous as her husband Darshana wanted to go to the office despite tension in the City. Darshana consoled her and went out. Before going, he informed Veda that one of his friend's father is going to visit their house next day and he will be staying with them for some time.

Being aware of Darshana's helping nature, Veda didn't feel bad and nodded her head. She was bit anxious and didn't sleep properly in the night. Next day, early morning, she heard the sound of the gate and rushed to the front door to open and see who is coming. She saw an elderly man with white panche and white shirt standing in front of the door.

The elderly man was looking very intellectual and commanded the respect naturally. Veda treated him well and served a nice breakfast.

Foliage Green color drops are put on the wet surface to give the green plant effect. On the wet surface I put the green color and sligtly tilted the paper upwards so that the color spreads downwards slightly.
