9th November 2024 Mr Nandakumar   I painted these yellow flowers with acrylic. Yellow is an inspiring colour. Our mood gets lifted when we see that colour. I would like to add the following quote:   “I inhale positive energy and exhale any fears. I will not worry about things that are out of my…

9th November 2024 Mr Mani Menon   I loved this ink and pen artwork by Mr Mani. For a moment I thought his tree looked odd. Then I realized that the tree is only half with the branches of the tree loaded with tons of birds. Of course, the red dot mark is his signature…

9th November 2024 Beena   Hello, guys. It has been a while since I wrote my thoughts. We all have days when we feel down. The past few weeks were not pleasant. However, what hurt me the most is the type of ideology that many of my ‘friends’ have adopted. Specifically, the shift towards [specific…
