Wikipedia defines a nation as a community of people formed on the basis of a combination of shared features such as language, history, ethnicity, culture and or society.
There is no denying the fact our Drupka Land fulfills these international standards. So we are a great nation. Thanks to our National Hero Beloved King –Gongsar Ugyen Wangchuck.
To celebrate 115th National Day, the nationwide art competition is a great platform to showcase the creative art and mind of our artists.
Lalith and I, the two of us are taking part simply because there are many unmatched undertakings in the country by our successive monarchs and people. Lalith has his god-gift art talent and I have the idea to contest on the theme. Moreover, it is also time to express gratitude to all the national heroes, culture and tradition that makes us unique and different.
Zhabdrung Ngawang Namgyel and Guru Rinpoche made a good combination to put in the piece for the unification of culture and tradition and other Bhutanese Etiquette. 72% forest coverage and other national heritage such as Dzong and Lhakhang was another nice piece of information. Works and reforms under successive monarchs took our hearts and gave us national pride to express in the art piece. Wise International relations and limited foreign visitors was exceptional. The concept of GNH, Democracy, GYT and DYT, and unity and close-knit family and community were topics that gripped the two of us to include in our art piece.
The two of us spent a lot of time fixing the jigsaw puzzle. However, the good thing is that before I met him, I had already thought over and pen down my rough ideas on a piece of paper to put in an artistic lens.
Lalith, a grade eleven boy, took almost eight days to replicate my idea in the space the two of us have created.
One thing I always dare to do is the fine art. Although I am not artistic and have this fine motor skill, I know many famed artists of the world and of our nation who have created history and are in the hearts of millions.
I always dream of creating a photo gallery and art exhibition hall because it gives good feelings and a sense of good human touch because art is a medium to express feelings as it doesn't require any word to understand. Art is a universal language that doesn't separate region, religion, cast, creed, and color.
I have seen a good future for this innocent boy. There is nothing more beautiful than having such a great time together. However, I assured him even if the two of us do not make it to the top ten entries, yet we have done a great deal of work that can be remembered long after this year. We can just open the door for another day. And more beautiful days are yet to come. We promised to move forward even if the sky shatters the door.
I wish him good luck in his future endeavors!
