14th July 2023 Beena Hello there😊😊🐶🐶. I posted Zara’s sketch today. I wish to describe this pencil sketch. I have struggled with drawing my girls all this while.

11th July 2023 Mr Mani and Beena   Hi there! I was intrigued by this artwork by Mr Mani. What do you see🤔? Though it appears to be some lines in different hues crisscrossing each other, I see a story😎.   I see an elephant consoling a young girl. Her head is downcast. The elephant’s…

10th July 2023 Mr Mani Menon   It is the small habits. How you spend your mornings. How you talk to yourself. What you read. What you watch. Who you share your energy with. Who has access to you. That will change your life.   Michael Tonge

7th July 2023 Beena   Hello there. I had no energy to write even though I knew what to write. Does that happen to you🤔🤔🤔? When I painted that place in white with a blue sea as the background, I was unsure how it would turn out. It is a watercolour painting.   I received…

26th June 2023 Kala and Beena   Hello guys😊😊. I wish to share this little story with a painting from Kala done on Procreate. Street scenes are challenging, mainly when you include a car or a bike.

23 June 2023 Mr Nandakumar  I painted Tipu’s fort which is a major landmark in Palghat as I have memories of my youth that I wish to cherish. In the early 80s five of us landed in Palghat after graduation for our jobs. We bonded like the Famous Five of Enid Blyton and we had…

23rd June 2023 Beena  Hello guys😊😊😊. Allan wrote the first story about my painting of Bruges on our website (please check it out) in early 2020 during the pandemic. Recently, he requested some of my work, and this was one of them. But when I looked at that version, I was aghast🤯🤯. How can I…
