As a kid, ShreeVishnu of Isha Vidhya
Coimbatore devoured cartoons on
TV and then discovered R. K. Laxman
and Kode BossLogic.
When he was in Class 8, he won the
’Outstanding Award‘ at the 5th
National Level Phegivef Drawing
Competition, surpassing 52 other
participants. This gifted artist has
also won a few prizes at chess
competitions.
ShreeVishnu enjoys the art and
craft class because “every day is
a new day with new things,” he
says. Colors, on the other hand,
he adores because they make his
pictures bright and his hands
messy.
In 2019, inspired by Cauvery Calling,
an initiative by Sadhguru to revive
River Cauvery, he created a widely
appreciated painting with
encouragement and motivation
from his teachers.
ShreeVishnu is now in Class 12 and
is experimenting and working on
developing his pencil shading skills.
While he is still weighing his options
for higher studies, he says he will
definitely continue to paint in the
future, too.
