PAINTING
Painting is not just making random lines on paper with colors. It is a confluence of art and emotion, a way of unleashing the inner thinker, an outlet for one’s feelings. Each painting has a story of its own, some visible, some invisible.
The Painting competition as apart of verve sought to bring forth these hidden stories in artists’ minds. In two hours, students wove magic with paints as they depicted their takes on “why so serious?” OR “casino”. The creative juices flowed as each person strived to bring their thoughts alive on paper. Indeed, the judges, Dr. Swapna (Dept. of Pharmacology) and Dr. Abhyu (Intern) had a hard time choosing the best ones.
Winners:
1st: Samya (2nd Semester)

The competition was judged by Dr Chandni , Dr Swapna and Dr Ashwini.
