Birds Sighted At DA-IICT Campus
A watercolour painting series of birds sighted at DA-IICT campus
During my first visit to the DA-IICT campus, I was captivated by the variety of birds amidst the lush greenery. Everywhere I looked, there was a different species. It was an astonishing experience. Being passionate about painting, I decided to document these various species through my preferred and fascinating medium of watercolor. I discussed this project with some institute members who assisted by providing a list of birds sighted on campus. Additionally, I received support from PMMC photography club members who shared an interest in bird photography, particularly regarding new species.
These are some of the paintings of the bird series, other birds are in progress and might be completed by end of this year.
A full display of the birds series will be done by next year in which, we will have around 50 paintings of the birds.
