Boy with paper boats
Category : Acrylic on canvas
Canvas size : 30'' x 24''
I always used to sit alone and play.It is not that I didn’t want to play with other children. My language was a block, and other children often did not understand me. So I was left alone.
Here in the rain, paper boats glide in front of my mom’s parents’ home. Rain, grandfather and umbrella again were a lovely combination in childhood.

After I lost my speech, my mom made frantic efforts for me to regain it .

I was not very active physically. Dr Surendran at Amritha Hospital told my mom if I learned how to swim, it would improve my muscles.
