Nice ocnetkn
Rightly said. I agree with your views. Great piece of art there.
This little picture has so many meaning in it. It is completely filled with richness of thoughts. It depicts how the young generation of this world is facing so many problems at such a tender age. This can also mean that they will saturate at a point and they would not want to grow at a point and that is when they reach the top.
This drawing very unique. When i saw it at first, i didn't noticed little details like kids on stand under tree. This picture can be understood only if you're watching it with attention.
Nice painting.
That’s a sensible answer to a cheanllging question
Thanks for you very
