Young artists come together on noble cause

Twelve students of the Nepal Fine Arts campus have joined hands to organise group exhibition under the Heart Beat Series to help disadvantaged children.

The artists have put together 35 paintings and a few sculptors at the gallery inside Baryo Fiesta in Naxal.

With themes ranging from human emotions to nature to semi-abstract paintings, the young artists have shown their talent at the exhibition.

Using various media like acrylic, oil, water and pastel, the young artists have proven that the country has no dearth of creative talents.

And they have also drawn accolades for coming together on a noble purpose. "We have decided to contribute 30 percent proceeds of this exhibition for Children's Art Project 2007. Children of Jana Kalyan Primary School in a village in Nagarkot will be taught the art of painting and given educational materials," said Juju Kaji Maharjan, program coordinator of the exhibition. "We also welcome other contributions from those who are interested," he added.

Twelve talented artists including Sapana Shah, Pramit Dhakal, Manju Shyaula, Anil Maharjan, Uday Karmacharya, Rajan Maharjan, Raj K. Prajapati, Sujan Dangol, Aabhushan Duwal 'Bhusan', Sachin Yogol Shrestha, Santosh Shrestha 'Rashav' and Mekh Bahadur Limbu Subba have put their paintings at the exhibition.

The exhibition, which kicked off on July 2 will continue till August 2
