A painting that i can never forget

Yes in our life we have seen many paintings and pictures that have touched our life or seduced our eyes.The paintings of Davinci a and Michael Angelo are most famous among them. The painting of Raja Ravi Varma is still on of the marvels in the world.They are unique and appealing to our eyes.
But more than these there is a painting that touched both my eyes and heart that is what i saw when i was going for a picnic with my class students.We were travelling from Trivandrum to Alleppey.It was already midnight. As children were dancing and singing i could not sleep.I was watching what all things area happening tin the outside world.Then i saw the picture that still remains in my mind.
A lean man drawing a picture of the malayalam actress picture on the wall of jewelry shop.Even though it was mid night how beautifully he was drawing the picture.It was not for his pleasure or get fame by drawing the picture but it was for earning the food for the family.still i could see that he was totally immersed in his paintings.whether it is for money or fame what is more important is that a kind of involvement in whatever we do.Usually nobody will be very active in the nighttime but the poverty compels him to work in the nighttime too.
The painting was very attractive.I think it was a picture of Kavya Madhavan a famous malayalam actress.The painting had a touch of Sandosh shivan who portrayed Kavya as Revivarma's well known picture in the movie Anandabhadram.Therefore that picture lives in me more stronger than any other picture that i have seen. Dear artist you may have drawn that picture for your livelihood but for me a piece of art that still lives in me more stronger than any other picture.
