Few Of My Painting Stuffs


                   Paintings are one of the oldest art forms.Painting can be traced back to the prehistoric age when Neanderthal man created some form of art. Painting is actually the practice of applying colour to some sort of surface, be it paper, canvas, glass or even wood and lacquer.

Here, I would like to add few of my painting stuffs , that i made recently.





             The above painting is done with the acrylic paint.It depicts an incident from the Great Indian epic "Mahabharata", in which Shakuntala, the mother of the Emperor Bharata writes a letter to the King Dushyanta.
