Kolkata Streets 2 (Dawn in Kolkata) Acrylic Cityscape Painting

This watercolor city street dissolves into a veil of mist, where towering facades emerge less as architecture than as remembered sensations—weight, weather, and time pressed into paper. The composition funnels the eye down a pale corridor of light, punctuated by slender lampposts and small, dark figures that lend human scale to the monumental silence of the buildings. Subtle ochres and soot-greys bleed into one another, while occasional crimson accents flare like brief pulses of life, suggesting the city’s rhythm continuing beneath the hush. In the generous negative space, the scene becomes a meditation on transience: a place both inhabited and already slipping into atmosphere.
