"Karna"


so finalee a nu post !!! it's been really long since i last posted ,
...this post is a sketch i happen to do of one of my fav cha from the epic "Mahabharat" called "Karna" he was born to kunti as a result of a boon given by the "Sun" god himself. over his life he became to signify "Selflessness" ,it's a journey of a man who's so gifted but how fate conspires against him ,it's a story of a man against himself..he's also the only one in the war who get's cremated by Lord "Krishna" himself. will post more on this soon :)

...also hav been workin on an extremely interestin project ....all underwraps but soon will share bits .i'm really excited about this one as on this project i'm doin the story too n it's been great so far.

n Thanks a lot everyone for takin time out to post in a comment ...THANKS:)

..........................................................................am still struggling to get words to express the way i felt for this character. the determination in his eyes to face anything, his posture, and hey he is the golden man of mahabharat bro. i loved the way you chose your pallet, he is scintillating. i don wanna say anything about this beautiful piece as what i feel will any time defeat what i could write! as always hats off bro!

Dear Abhishek,

I will be very very frank. It started 2 hours back that I saw a rerun of MAHABHARAT on a TV channel.I just watched it for 5 mins and flipped over the channel. 2 mins later i was on Wiki checkin out details about KARNA. Saw a painting there and it was written "A portrait of Karna by Abhi."
i was mesmerised by the picture, in absolute awe i read the article and quickly saved the pic. I even uploaded in on my Facebook profile.but something inside told me, i want to know who this ABHI is... i googled and found this blog of yours and the many paintings and witeups 'bout 'em. Mr Abhishek Singh, i have no clue who you are (i know you paint), I have no idea if you are a big,accomplished painter or just starting out (pardon me as i dont follow painting as such). But i must say ....dude ABSOLUTELY AMAZING TALENT U HAVE!! I've become a fan of yours!! one can play so much with imagination and add talent/skill to it and magic is created! please keep up the great work!! m saving all ur pics dude.. hope u dont mind ;)

Hi Abishek,

I read this somewhere and its stuck with me:

The catepillar said, "its the end of the world",
The master said,"its the beginning of a butterfly".

Your art is eveidently beautiful, but its your thoughts behind them that embibe them with their real beauty.

Thanks...your blog makes one feel like a butterfly!

Your art is amazing and has inspired me more than a few times. Such emotion and flourish in each piece. Can't wait to see more and more.
