However much you love the humans, at times there are moments (or many) when you need a time out, at a loss of words, engulfed in deep feelings bringing tears in your eyes. Also there are moments (less than we would normally want, we always want more!) the humans fill you with overwhelming love taking you out of this world. And you need a time out to check if it’s real. Or there are times where your heart pulls you to paint for no reason, you will feel it very strongly that you just can’t ignore it. And at such time out, the colors of the paints can do magic, taking you to a place you want to be, synching with your moods, a place which is just for you, your space and your creation. And painting can be just fun, healing, liberating and magical. I love it. You have to try to feel it.

Symbolic representation of Lord Pakhangba (depicting one of the Paphal form) in Manipur. As I was reading and learning about Manipur, I felt a strong inspiration to draw the symbolic representation I have seen as a child, in Manipur. I finally drew this acrylic painting after looking up many images online and thinking of the different Paphal form..
