On November 2014 and I won by 606 votes.


Nineteen artists had submitted entries for this challenge which focused on using the color YELLOW in their art. They have shared the meaning of yellow to them, how they use it in their art, and who are their favorite painters of yellow paintings. Painting with yellow is special challenge since it’s the lightest, brightest pigment. Please copy paste to your browser.

This is what I wrote:
The first rain drops after a scorching summer brings the Indian peacock out in the open , spreading its rapturous colors in ecstasy, longing for more as the clouds rumble sky to sky and the shower sweeps the horizons. A Rainbow Peacock on a Rainy Day……No pens/ markers used, acrylics & brushes. I use my conservative old traditional free hand. My work is traditional, cultural and detailed oriented. I enjoy working with colors. I enjoy perfection in my work. I enjoy creativity. I can do the most detailed oriented work with complete perfection. I do all detailed using my free hand. The color Yellow gives me the feeling of ‘Positive –Energy’ and ‘Hope’, just like the sun’s that never forgets to rise and set. I love using bright and vibrant colors because’ I believe that colors can radiate a human mind, percolate through the deepest thoughts and makes us just happy. I was always fascinated with Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore. His paintings are thought-provoking to me and he used yellow to his work.
