Painting of the Portrait...

Hi All,

One of my ventures into painting Portraits...real life like anatomical ones...was the portrait of Shri Kakkanadan. This is a painting based on Oil-Medium and was an inspiration from my meeting with my favourite author.




Hearing about the visit of my favourite author to my abode started my braincells thinking of a suitable gift that i could present him with. What could be more ecstatic to him than his own portrait, which no one had done yet. I was real quick to act on this idea and painted the portrait within no time. The smile on Kakkandan's face and first words from him about the Portrait made me realise that my effort for days and after burning the midnight oil had paid off finally. It made me realise that " A SMILE is worth a MILLION dollars".

Reports in Newspaper

Hi All,

Me and my Family were privileged to have the famous evergreen author Kakkanadan at our Home. Kakkanadan visited our house alongwith his Son-in-Law, Giri to view my paintings. Much to our luck, Kakkandan agreed to take out time from his busy profile and talk to us.





Kakkanadan was happy to receive his portrait and retorted that it was a brilliant replica of himself. Also with the other paintings well in his sight, I was happy to present before him my views which i expressed through my paintings.

The First words from the Great Man himself in response to the painting were "ASAADHYAM...GAMBHEERAM" (Impossible...Superb) . The photo on the left shows the portrait painted by me with me on the Right side holding it(me in Blue Shirt) and the author Kakkanadan (With the Black Shirt) receiving it.
