The Patriot

15^th August, 2007 It’s our Independence Day. The independence which is for everyone irrespective of their Cast, Color and Creed. We have always lived by setting examples, just turn few pages of our history and you will find the July 26, 1999 a day when the determined Indian forces in Kargil achieved a glorious victory over the retreading Pakistan army and we are the same nation which showed the world that Independence can be achieved by following footsteps of Mahatma Gandhi, – ” Satyagrah and Ahinsa “.

We are living in the 60^th year of our glorious independence. Although we may be counted as young country in terms of years of independence however we have grown a lot as a nation. We planned Economic development – Eight Five Year Plans implemented, 9^th under implementation. 10^th most industrialized country in the world. 6^th nation to achieve Nuclear Power. Kaleidoscope of cultural heritage. Over 1700 languages and dialects – common historical experience – Unity in Diversity.

So on this auspicious day lets Salute to all those who fought for our freedom and lets roar as one Nation.

Pencil Portrait Of A Girl From A Photograph


Photo to Sketch

This is a wonderful example of Atul’s ability to capture the essence of someone in a portrait. Portraits can be a tricky thing because you really need to be careful not to change the look of somebody or to create a different sense of their character. A portrait is something that, once done, will be kept for a long time and admired regularly.

One of the skills of an artist is trying to bring the picture to life. You want to be able to look at it and see within it the person you know and love. You want to be able to look into their eyes and see the person you recognise and that is exactly what Atul manages to do, time and time again.
