Happy Independence Day

Celebrating 62 glorious years of Independence.....

INDIA

The land blessed with a vivid culture and abundance of flora and fauna,

The land renowned for its heritage and history,

The land strengthened by it's economoic balance, and

The land which is mystically unique.

This was inspired from a picture from webshots. I thought was perfect for this day. I have used the Indian flag colours in this painting. I felt this had a look of Mother India. It symbolises the richness of its diversity.

To me, being Indian means progress, co-existence, success, innovation, oppurtunity and responsibility. I feel proud to be Indian because inspite of its imperfections, it is perhaps one of the best places in the world to be from - India is a model for the modern world. Despite being traditional by nature, it embraces change and moves ahead with the modern times. This is one of the reasons why it has been one of the most resilient countries during the economic crisis.

I am proud to be part of this great nation

and

salute its glory on its Independence Day.
