Tribute to the Masters

There is a lot that one can learn from the work of great Artists who worked in the past. I am sure most of us would want to thank them for being a source of inspiration to us all. In my own way I have paid tribute to the great sculptors from 7th century who carved several monolithic rocks at Mahabalipuram (also called Mamallapuram). I have also attempted to capture the beauty of the 12-13th century carvings at Belur and halebeedu.

I also want to pay homage to some Western/European Artists. Last month when I visited the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York I sketched the works of Van Gogh, Monet and O’Keefe. Here they are:
