Oil Crayon

Its been a while we did not spent time with the kids and let them express themselves on paper

Noticed how she drew their hair..all are spike...

If only...

If only I have a chance..I would just leave my current ground, ..ground with too many politics, constraint and headache...I would love to just paint and paint..travel and paint again...no exam to sit, no superior to report to, no office politics to faced ....but its all about timing and the right option at the moment...one fine day I have to sit down and think carefully of this option....


The great Mexican artist Frida Kahlo said, "The only thing I know is that I paint because I need to..." Van Gogh put it this way, "The only time I feel alive is when I'm painting." To Russian painter Marc Chagall, art was a means to a higher end. "My hands were too soft..." he explained, "I had to find some special occupation, some kind of work that would not force me to turn away from the sky and the stars, that would allow me to discover the meaning of life."


this is the canvas of life.....
