open canvas

An event named “Open Canvas” was held on 22nd September, 2009 on FLAME Campus where a group of musicians consisting of Milind Date [ flute], Nilesh Randive [tabla] , drums and guitarists (students of Flame) produced a melodic music. On the rhythm of this music, the artists Milind Mulick, Aditya Shirke, Mukta Awchat, Aditi Dev and Ketaki Pimpalkhare danced on the floor named canvas with colours. Students from Flame also got on the floor with their colors and canvas. This made each artist loosen oneself in both the arts simultaneously. The musicians enjoyed the painters swinging on their music, and the painters enjoyed the melody and mood achieved while painting with music.
This beautiful blend of two arts became an attraction for the others. The music pacified the ears of the audience and the colours appealed to the eyes. This combination made the mind of the audience take a break from the hush and bush of the life and relax. People enjoyed the increase in the beauty of painting with the addition of each colour stroke, making them curious for every next stroke and adding to the beauty further. With the passage of time, the audience could calm their heart, mind and soul at the same time. They were even amused with this process they were undergoing within.
Thus this event was enjoyed by every person right from the musicians to audience.An awesome initiative by the Visual Art class.

Making cards with ink

It was good work before Diwali. It helped me to give cards to those who are close to me. They felt happy to receive hand-made cards. Unique, beautiful and fun to make. One of the best class.

Reflections

"While doing 'wet-on-wet' technique in water colors I realized one thing that one needs to play with colors like green and yellow with touches of blue and red. It gives out a fresh look. While trying to blend colors like red and blue, the effect is dull and the freshness is lost. I feel, using pleasant colors is much more better. Darker shades to me, show rigidity."

"My favourite artist is Gregory Colney. The main reason is his way of painting sky. the colour combinations that he uses are very appealing and soothing not only to the eyes but also to heart. apart from these some of the other reasons are as follows:

1. He makes the viewer feel the aura, that he did, while making the respective painting
2. His has well identified his strength i.e landscapes
3. I feel that he puts the nature very beautifully on the paper - specially by his techniques and colour selection
4. He captures the common scene and portrays it in very unusual way
5. He barely has any thing abstract in the painting thus every one can relate easily. "
