This
is an abstract painting done using acrylics on oil sketch paper. My
many efforts of using acrylics have still not succeeded and I still have
to learn the correct method of painting using acrylic colours. they dry
very fast and also have effects similar to water colours. But the
advantage with acrylics is that they are water proof so once the
painting is dry you need not worry of spilling liquid on it and the
painting getting spoiled, like with water colours.
This
painting is done in July , 2011 and done for enjoyment. My signature
style shapes , my favorites circles and squares!The triangle was done to
create a three dimensional effect but I do not know whether I have
achieved this aim, which gives me another inspiration of a new artwork.
Glaze with green over blue colour and the hot pink.(somewhere ended up
with muddy colours which I have erased using water immediately, the fun
part of abstracts!)on the whole I enjoyed this artwork very much as I
was free to make anything.
After
this artwork I have done few paintings trying some shapes in three
dimensional effects. each painting leads to another...so much to
paint..so little time
Sophistication by Rizwana Mundewadi
| |||
This
is another artwork that has been included in the Emirates competition.
The choice of colours matter most to me and very often i end up using
french ultramarine blue and Prussian blue, titanium white, turquoise
blue, all colour that are linked to peace. I being an spiritual healing
artist have more tendency to select these colours and very often I have
to choose and force myself to use reds and greens!
This
si an abstract painting and my signature style, lines are used to
depict so many aspects in the artwork. This painting is open to
interpretation by the viewers.
I have read that any abstract painting must be right from all sides.
This painting has fulfilled my expectations and since I got the concept clear it is most apt for the title given.
Art
competitions are most important as they give you motivation to excel
and also give you global exposure.Winning for me is not so important as I
believe that we are all on a journey in this world.
This
painting is an abstract artwork which has symbolic meaning indicated
with the choice of colours. And my signature style, I cannot let go of
colours any time and so have selected many colours for the indication of
various cultures.
This
painting can be hung on any wall but will be more suitable for any
office or home. It is sure to be a welcome piece for any living room and
center of attention.
Magical- Painting by Rizwana Mundewadi
| ||
This
is a painting done on oil sketch paper using oil paints. This is also
one of the paintings that has been put up in the Emirates competition.
https://www.skywardsfutureartists.com/
The
theme given for this competition was modernism and my concept of
Emirates was magical experience that they give the travelers. On
thinking for many days and the whole month I came up with the concept
and to include many aspects in one artwork and still be focused with a
simple idea I thought of making the most important thing that would link
Emirates , that is the sky. Then I wanted to include the whole universe
which was impossible in one artwork, so I used my signature style of
painting and put up some sacred shapes!
The
painting depicts the sky and magical element of freedom in the
universe. There is an unknown happiness and flow of movement in the
artwork which is almost magical.
This
painting can be hung on any wall and especially for children's bedroom
as they love colours and fantasy. A very good motivational painting for
high achievers and will go very well in any office or home.
The painting has been done using soothing colours and some darker shades to create the feelings of fantasy.
Opulence - painting by Rizwana Mundewadi

| Opulence by Rizwana Mundewadi |
This is one of my latest paintings that I have done specially for an art competition.
https://www.skywardsfutureartists.com/
The
Emirates Competition for Future Artist is a wonderful opportunity for
artists from all over the world to display their work for free. New
artist get global exposure and it sure is a way to get international art
reviews.
When
I got the email this year I was excited and then began the journey of
thoughts, processes and composition. The topics for the competition were
unique just like the emirates!
Given here is a photograph of Opulence
my first thought , and anybody who is mentioned opulence will say diamonds, gold, jewel , pearls , money!
I
have linked opulence to spirituality and for me opulence is when a
person has all the material possessions in the world but is
sophisticated and his needs have become less. To come out of this rat
race of money and live a life where you can do away with many things!
The painting opulence has been done on oil sketch paper and is a spiritual abstract painting.
I
have specifically used French ultramarine blue, my favourite colour,
for indicating royalty and richness. The colour red is symbolic of
prosperity and fame, where as the colour green indicates growth and
brown used for grounding energy of the individual.
The
use of colour gold is very important and I have used it very sparingly
to make an important point in this painting. With the progress of
painting over the years my lines are disappearing and taking shape into
square. Though they are still seen in my works as I cannot do without
lines, they are so simple and yet make a dramatic statement in any
artwork!
The painting has been termed as untitled as it is open to interpretation
Placement
Tips- This is a very good painting and also a feng shui cure for many
problems. Since the colours are fresh and bright and having red and
green the south and south eats is the best place to hang this painting. A
definite cure for fame and recognition and money problems this painting
will brighten up any area of your home and will be an focal point in
the living room. This will activate the south area and thus promote good
luck and prosperity. August 2011.
Happy Landscape Painting by Rizwana

| Happy Landscape by Rizwana Mundewadi |
This
painting named as happy landscape is a fantasy artwork. Love and
happiness in this painting can be felt by the viewer since I have used
lots of pink colour in this landscape painting. Usually I am not a
landscape person and I usually paint symbolic abstract artworks. The
thought to make a fantasy world , using children's colours, though the
artwork does look a bit childish but I really enjoyed making this
painting. The happy home with colourful walls, the smooth steps of the
home and the water moving happily , all depict the immense happiness in
this landscape painting.
I still love this painting and even now when I take a look at this artwork it transfers you to the same place of fantasy land.
Since
there are no straight lines or hard strokes the painting seems to be
flowing in an surreal atmosphere.Very good to hang in children's bedroom
especially for the girl's bedroom and I am sure they will enjoy the
lovely colours of this symbolic artwork. Also this is a painting done on
paper and is small in size so very convenient for the children's
bedroom.
Soul Mates Painting by Rizwana Mundewadi
| ||
A
painting done in abstract with the theme of love and soul mates. The
deep universe is depicted and the hidden force which helps two soul
mates to meet. This painting is very good to find true love and
definitely works to get the right partner in life.
The
colours used are harmonious and tend to move in a smooth circular flow.
Since these abstract paintings are done very long back I do treasure
them very much. It was hung in our home for long and is a very good
painting for the bedroom area.
This
is a simple symbolic artwork is done on paper using oil paints. The
feelings of love and peace during making this artwork are felt by the
viewer. This symbolic painting can be hung on any wall but especially
for people who are suffering to find true love, or those who have not
found true soul mate.

Painting of Serenity by Rizwana Mundewadi

| Painting of Serenity by Rizwana Mundewadi |
Title: Serenity
Year: 2000
Medium: Oil on Canvas
Size: 29x19 inches
Description:
This is an landscape painting. Like every artist I too had my share of
landscapes though a very few, and I moved on to making abstracts and
symbolic artworks. The serene mountains and the calm water project
peaceful feelings and the viewer is drawn towards the present
moment.Had a lot of reference photos for this artwork but was not moved
by any. The feeling which any landscape gave me was incomplete. Then the
idea of an oasis emerged, a place of serenity, a place which doe snot
exist in reality! Since my aim of painting was to make happy paintings
and leave the world a better place than I had found it , I progressed
with this artwork without any reference. There are layers of paints and
this photograph is not very clear. It in fact indicates that as my
painting has emerged so has the landscape in this artwork.
Placement
Suggestions: Basically this is an landscape work and can be hung on any
wall as the theme is positive. This painting would be best for the east
section of the living room or bedroom. The high rise mountains give
strength for the weak hearted people and also soothe the nerves of
people suffering from lot of stress. This painting would be suitable for
the North East for people suffering from anxiety and emotional
problems, this will help healing and acceptance of one's self.
Basically
this is an landscape painting and has universal appeal to all viewers,
this can be hung on any place of the individual choice.
Painting of Emergence of Faith by Rizwana Mundewadi
|
Title: Emergence of Faith
Medium: Water colour on Paper.
Year: 2001
Size: 13x15 inches.
Description:
This work is symbolic and abstract. Done using water colours the
painting draws the viewer deep into meditation. It gives a serene
feeling along with gradual emergence of faith.This artwork has come up
by trying the techniques in watercolours. I used fully loaded brush and
made many paintings using the same strokes.The process was such
enjoyable that paintings went on turning one after the other, and I had
many artworks using water colours.Finally I stopped after getting tired
and then again continued the same another day! This is one of the best
among the many artworks. The year 2000 when I started painting and the
next has gone by doing artworks using various techniques and styles of
paintings, along with different mediums.I am very happy that I have
developed my distinct artist's style over the span of more than a
decade. This painting of emergence of faith has a special place in my
heart and also had displayed this in my home.
Placement
Suggestions: This painting can be hung on any wall. As the dominant
colour is green with a dull red on white background no specific details
for placement have to be observed. The painting being a healing
painting, will draw the viewer into a meditative mode and whenever I
still observe it it sends positive vibes and definitely is a beautiful
artwork since it has been done using strong positive strokes.Placing
this painting on the living room wall or the bedroom wall would be good.
This artwork is , in itself is a whole lot, and a single artwork is sufficient to draw interest in the room.

| Painting of Music Flowing |
Title - Music Flowing
Oil on Canvas
Year 2000
Size 30x40 inches
Description:
This painting has the theme of music. The healer who is playing music
for the betterment of the world. The long hair especially indicates the
long journey of the healing artist. The spiritual tree under which the
healer sits is blooming with happiness and showering love. The white
veil shows many music instruments as a cover for encompassing all
problems. A small colourful boat indicates the pleasant journey of the
artist.
Since
this is one of my very early artworks the composition and design has
not been paid much attention on. The painting has been done in positive
and happy mood and this also show the positive spirit. I apologize for
the poor quality of this photograph, I am a very bad photographer , but
still over the decade have improved quite a lot!
Placement
Suggestions: Since this painting has music it can be placed on any
wall. The colour red and black would be appropriate for hanging the work
on the south wall. It promotes good luck, prosperity, peace and
serenity. Due to the positive concept it will send positive vibes on
which ever wall it is placed on.

| Painting of Opportunities by Rizwana Mundewadi |
Title: Opportunities
Size: 19x29 Inches
Medium: Oil on Canvas
Year: 2000.
Description:
This is one of my earliest paintings. Very simple thought is projected
here with many doors, fancy doors, creative doors, colorful doors. This
is symbolic representation of opening of many different opportunities in
an individual's life. Some are partially open, some slightly moved and
the best door is totally and fully open. My life's journey also did get
the right direction after this artwork and I am very possessive about
his artwork.
I
have been attracted to different materials with which doors are made
and looking at interior decoration magazines would always find wood,
metal and glass doors attractive. Having the white light emerging from
behind the doors and the big open door indicates positive energy and
also represents life as their are many opportunities for every
individual and it is just a matter of choice and hard work to excel in
any.
Placement
Tips: well I did place it at the back of my front door , for drying.
LOL just about any wall in your home. Best if you are in a business
where you need other people and many outlets for expanding business,
hanging this artwork on the south wall or north wall will help you get
good business prospects and opportunities. This painting is also an
motivational artwork as it is indicative of positive growth and
progress.
