This is my comments after the prize announcements which came in The Hindu – In School Section…
“I chose the topic ‘Annual day at school.’ I painted a Bharatanatyam dancer on stage, as it is an art form I love. Though I’d participated in The Hindu Young World painting competition earlier, I didn’t win anything. I am happy this time I got a prize and want to do better in the coming years.
