Impressionism : An art movement

    Impressionism is a 19th-century art movement. This art movement has a peculiar style of work. This style includes thin, yet seeable strokes, the emphasis was always on the deception of light, and open composition. The subject matter during that movement was usually ordinary.

Fusion of Art and Life

Drypoint  is a printmaking  technique of the intaglio   family, in which an image is incised into a plate (or "matrix") with a hard-pointed "needle" of sharp metal or diamond point.

Waiting for you since forever

Sitting on the path hoping to find you on my way,  The path I am unaware of, fogging up the view.  Looking on the clock ticking every moment But no sign of you coming towards my way. The time that passed by, The moment of feel gone by, Wind touching the soul like a feel after a cold war. Feel of a wonderful imagination, Or a princess of the Disney land.  The one who’s gone would never come back  But I still wish to see you again.  The tears dropped by,  The nostalgia coming around just make my heart sink. These memories are killing me every moment. When will this wait end,  When will this wound fill. The loneliness fading away with the clinch of facade in my heart.  -HA
