'Rang' - Paintings by lil' kid beggars


So it happened that the police was polite to them for a change. They bothered to be soft towards the little street angels and they were keen to explain to them that their tiny little hands are not meant for begging and rather look beautiful with a pencil or a brush

Yet another event by We Volunteer.. "RANG".. Sunday, 4th May evening..we managed to get all the kids together to paint their dreams. They had the dreams.. we had the space (canvas).. They had the choice and we had the colors

So, we found one of the corners is sector 17 market where we all sat together. One angel and one volunteer. Sheets.. colors.. water.. as much as you want.

Makhna was the first to finish one painting.. It was contour portrait of lord ganesha.. white in black. Pooja took a lot of time but came with an all green painting that had red flowers around it.. I remembered that when I was a kid.. green and red used to be my favorite combination.

We all painted.. sometimes the chart and sometimes each other's hands.. All under Charan's supervision, a volunteer pursuing graduation from Government Arts College, Chandigarh.

Each Painting was special Aesthetic and appealing to the best of its possibilities. And the most pleasurable was the fact that these angels who live in scarcity all the time for some time, had an abundance of colors. Colors.. that make the world beautiful.......................................................
