@kaustavM - Congratulations! A well-deserved honor. I am so glad you have posted photos, not just of your paintings at different stages of process, but also of the shows. Very interesting.
Because, like you, I also had covid (and had it again 2 months ago!), I found your painting personally touching. This was a difficult composition and I think you did an incredible job of it. Savor the moment!
Congratulations and well deserved. It's a powerful observation of how intense this pandemic was. Years will pass and people's memories will dim. But here is the reminder.
Thanks very much @Abstraction and @GTO history yes...and they'll wonder how the hell the artist could capture all the equipments with so much perfection!
Just catching up with the posts @kaustavM...(you know how I come and go)
this is such an interesting painting...I am so used to seeing your landscapes! I hope you got some recognition for this eventually, I see all the congratulations but can't find the award post ...it would have looked like some movie plot if we hadn't just gone through the reality of it all. I hope your family are recovering quickly. Kindest thoughts, Jude
@judith couldn't reply earlier properly to your comment. I tried to make this known in the art circle as far as I could. This is now known that a painting like this exists but all it got in the news media is a passing mention. Also I mistimed contacting journalists...it occurred to me only during the exhibition. So, I had to pay the price for being slow and larger mention never appeared despite indepth interview taken by a journalist. All of these coatly mistakes will add to my learnings.

thank you for taking the time to explain for me...I really appreciate that. Handling all that is a real juggling act. Did you give it to a Covid treatment place or research institution? It could be another opportunity to get the media coverage??
