A painting in the Art exhibition

Yesterday, I had the honor of being the chief guest at the valedictory function of an art exhibition. I walked in expecting a few well-done canvases, but what I experienced went far beyond visual pleasure. The paintings weren’t just good — they were alive. Each brushstroke whispered a story. Each color evoked a feeling. It was as though the walls themselves had taken a breath and begun to speak.

The exhibition was a beautiful blend of thought, technique, and heart. Every bit was superb — a real feast to the eyes, and even more so, to the soul. Some paintings made me smile quietly. Some brought back old memories I hadn’t visited in years. And a few simply stopped me in my tracks and made me feel, deeply.
