I’m in the process of creating a new painting with begging as the subject.  There is this old woman who suddenly appeared in Nawala Colombo. I happen to see this woman everyday because she’s just spending time near to where I work. When I look at her eyes, it’s like time has stopped with her and she’s waiting for something. What I think is probably she’s waiting for the day when she finally get through her loneliness. It’s because she was not born begging…

The title I have given for the piece is “Begging for happiness”.

Hope it has come good. The following is the art piece.
