Color Blocking for Summer, and Art Journal Exploits Prompt #5

Summer doesn't sizzle as much here in pleasant Bangalore as in various other places in the tropics. However color blocking with summery hues and Juicy Watermelons are definitely on top of my mind.

I put it down on canvas today...
Summer - Acrylic on canvas, Ambika Sudhakaran, 2014

Juicy, yes!

Alrighty, Your Art Journal Exploits Prompt #5 is
Summer! 

Tell me what is top-of-your-mind when you hear "Summer"

    1. Am happy it did inspire you, Deepa! Do share your sketchbook pages, or your artwork if you actually get down to paint.
