on my way back home, I saw the crude copies of Ravi Varma paintings on the public walls as a part of city beautification project. What hurt me most was that almost all the paintings were massacred by drips of white paints coated on the blank wall above the fake reproduction of RV’s sensual females.
With what dedication and effort, the passionate hands of the poor painter would have tried to reproduce the classics! And with what insensitivity and carelessness, the art is killed!
No matter what, any art is art after all and its charm is enchanting!
I can see through the painter's viewpoint because dabbling with colours & paint brushes was one of my childhood dreams. :)
