WOMEN"S day ACHIEVER
When we see an art form, the eyes and the fingers are the ones that expresses the main sense and theme.. and gives LIFE to the paintings.
It is always nature,beauty, and social imbalances -- these are being expressed in art form -- to do that , the hands will thirst & quench its thirst to outburst the action it feels to be expressed in a wonderful painting..
But to do the painting, and achieve a name for oneself in the field--without hands? is it possible..
POSSIBLE IT IS.. has been proved by the young painter in SHIELA of LUCKNOW . The interview with the artist which came in a famous tamil weekly. "" Sheila lost her two hands in worst train accident,when she was four years old. She also lost three fingers in her feet,in the accident. she never wanted to be a burden to anyone , and she wanted achieve something, that should astound everyone. she learnt to do everything with her legs., by severe practice. She learnt art in Lucknow Arts college and she got scholarship and fellowship, which gave her much booster, and draw a lot of paintings. She wanted to conduct exhibition, and get accolades and and also got many..
Her paintings were displayed at the Chennai Lalit KalaKendra and Russian Culture in group Show. SHE always like to paint nature and children.
By holding the brush in between her fingers in the feet, the drawings she makes , one to feel astounding and astonishing. She has got a lot lot of awards!~! And that includes an award from Menaka Gandhi and an award from the Uttat Pradesh State Award. Since she paints from the feet, she is called a FOOT ARTIST and she is a member of the Mouth and Foot artists association. I like the paintings of Jatin Das and Satish Gujral( brother of former P.M.). ""I would like to do paintings till my death-- ""is her only wish..
People buy her work, paying good money.which are simply SUPERB.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Compared to her life, our life is nothing..
And she has achieved a lot,though she has lost the important body part-- both the hands, but what we have with achieved hands is -----NOTHING!~!~
Hats off to the WONDERFUL WILL POWER OF SHEILA..(translated article)
