Kunjunni Mash globalized.

All of a sudden the Internet shrunk the world we live in (yes, big news, I know.) What was previously considered to be your local, somewhat private, cherishments, has gone global. What do I know, it probably is a Good Thing too.

In other news, a Cuban expatriate Spanish teacher living somewhere in Florida in the United States thought of sketching a Kunjunni Mash, someone she's never even heard of previously. She says, "I never knew about him. But I immediately love those who write, and I love them even more if they do it for children. I too have memories of authors from my childhood."

And that, "My sketch was most impersonal although I enjoyed the soothing features of his face, the fluffiness of his beard and his kind and slightly surprised eyes. The look on his face was the most childlike I've seen (coming from an older person)."

Man. We are watching a revolution or what?

Other featured artist is my friend Roopashree who is holding her first exhibition of oil paintings - April 8 Saturday to 11 Tuesday, 11 am to 7pm, at the following address:

Virtuoso Art Gallery,
199-f Nilgiris Basement,
27th Cross, 3rd Block, Jayanagar,
Bangalore - 560011.

Please show up and give Roopa a pat or two on her back. Apparently art is The Big Investment for all these moneybags these days. I hope she will make a lot of money from sale of the paintings. Good luck, Roopa!
