Had a wonderful conversation about art over ginger tea with a colleague at New Straits Times Bangsar head office, yesterday afternoon.
Murali a graphic artist at NST gave me a wonderful opportunity to talk about my favourite subject - art. Been a long time since I last had such an opportunity. I spoke with Murali for close to an hour and am glad that my subconscious mind exhibited itself to allow me to present in a nutshell what art means to mankind and my deep involvement in it.
I was glad that Murali was wholly receptive to what I said. If I had given him an answer to what he was seeking from me, it will make my day.
I think at the end of the conversation we decided that there is a need for a genuine art circle where artists can turn to, to feed their artistic instincts, find themselves and their roles in society and hence safeguard their sanity.
A couple of works as a result of my first art circle at home in Cheras 2 1/2 mls Kuala Lumpur City Council workers' Quarters. A portrait of me done by my brother Jeganathan Ramachandram and him by me.
