Renowned painter Dr Jaspal S feels that the coronavirus has changed the life. He said his life had come to a halt at home due to the lockdown imposed for the safety of people.

‘I’m keeping myself busy in painting’

“Since the curfew was imposed, I have been staying indoors. I study art literature and four hours daily, I remain busy with my new watercolour painting series on life and nature to explore my feelings,” says renowned painter Dr Jaspal S. “As part of the series, I have drawn four paintings. I wish to draw 18 to 20 paintings. Taking the advantage of free time, I have submitted my two paintings for international and national exhibitions,” he says.

“When I was drawing the third painting of the series, a thought came to my mind that human beings are puzzled and thinking of their life. Humans are finding a solution which is shown here with an anchor in water here in small quantity to find the fish out of small sources (water in pot). The fourth one is under process,” he added.

The painter said, “I have a practical view about the expansion of life where a bird is pregnant, which means holding a life. It is upside down and the bird has a small foetus. The life we were enjoying have come to a halt, but the bird as a metaphor of flying life again marks a new beginning.”
