A Girl Met With Artistic World

The journey in the world of art started at earlier stage of her life when she was only 11 years old. She met with the artistic world and the artistic world too met with her. Hence, it is the journey of both a little girl and art. But the journey seems to be a big maze. She feels like irritating in ugly middle position.

On a very beautiful morning, she was sitting in a classroom studying silently when bell rang, lecture got over. The next lecture would be of art. All students were opening their drawing books and files, sharpening their pencils before teacher came to class. By the time teacher came they relished their paintings and drawings that how beautifully they made them. Instead of bringing her drawing book, she always came to school with her adorable colouring books with little and innocent characters. Then her mother observed her interest in making paintings and asked to join painting classes. And that's how she entered into artistic world, slowly she gained interest in making different types of paintings.

After 2-3 years she joined art club in her school itself. After sometime she started loving it and if she didn't spend 1 hour daily for it, her whole day seemed to be worst for her. She devoted her love to her teacher Mithun Mandal who always encouraged students to do more. She learned the way of making different types of paintings which were little bit different from that of ordinary paintings. By the time she became more efficient. Slowly she also created interest in photography and poetry. She won cash prize in photography and also took part in Kavi samelan. She also did various types of art and photography exhibitions. Her goodwill started increasing, got appreciation from her teachers, fellow friends and people started recognising her. But the journey is not as easy as it looks like, it is still going on. These exhibitions and recognisition became big hindrance in her artistic world. Her parents and teachers never came and stood with her, they were there only to demotivate her. They were hypocrites. Whenever she won prizes, they gave her blessings because mementos and certificates seem to be a symbol of appreciation, otherwise they never liked it. Sometimes she came late in class after the art club period got over, teachers always shouted at her and complained to her parents. When she completed her matric, parents wanted her to concentrate more and more time on study. Her dream to learn more and more about art vanished. But when she entered into college, she started doing it again. That's how her journey is still going on and it will continue.

Although she is not an artist, she is just a simple girl who makes painting and creative items with interest.
