Miniature paintings, 'Count the Sheep' (diptych)

Wrapped in heavy coats of wool, adult sheep calmly graze in a country field. N.K. Soni paints two enchanting animal portraits in the style of ancient Rajasthan. Using colors derived from crushed stones, he executes the fine lines by hand using a paintbrush of fine squirrel hair. These two handsome works are perfect complements. Crushed stone colors on handmade paper; mounted on a removable border.
