A Painter In Me?


BLISSFUL FRIENDSHIP: FROM DAWN TO DUSK

We won first prize!!!!!!!!!!!
Occassion: Painting & Collage competetion held at my office
Subject: Friendship For Ever.
Date: 22nd April, Wednesday
Team Mates: Lavanya Mani, Dhivya Dhonthi, Jeevitha Ramamurthy, Archana Anantharam, Vani Sekar, Myilarasi Muthulingam, Sriramya Appalakutti and last but not the least, Saraswathi Antherjanam (its mee........).
Concept: Our work represents life. In life a person have the right to choose between - (i) a life with lot of friends and (ii) a life without friends. Life without friends is like a desert, it is dry and dull. He has to face lot of troubles and difficulties. He will not have anyone to support or share his agonies. On the other hand if you have friends your life will be colourful, jovial and vibrant till end.
Painting: Life from birth to death is represented by the sunrise and sunset. The dry area on both sides represent life without friendship. Single footprint showns loneliness and also that you will not have a supporting hand in this path. Snakes, thorns and other dirty creatures represents the troubles you will have to face. The middle path is the path of friendship. In this life you will have flowers, butterflies, and all prosperities. The pair of footprints shows friends. Lake shows prosperity (water is symbol of prosperity) and swans, which are heavenly birds idealises a blissful life. In a life with friends even the sunset (death) will be very vibrant.
Items Used: Water colours, sand, flowers, paper cuttings & sticks.

My contribution is limited to the concept, painting directions, title and other supporting work. Actual painting is done by my friends :-)
