Chalo phir dhoond laayein hum......चलो फिर ढूँढ लायें हम

Chalo phir dhoond laayein hum
चलो फिर ढूँढ लायें हम 

usi masoom bachpan ko
उसी मासूम बचपन को 

unhin masoom khushiyon ko
उन्हीं मासूम खुशियों को 

unhin rangeen lamhon ko
उन्हीं रंगीं लम्हों को 

jahaan ghum ka pata na tha
जहां ग़म का पता न था 

jahaan dukh ki samajh na thi
जहां दुःख की समझ न थी 

jahaan bus muskurahat thi
जहां बस मुस्कराहट थी 

bahaarein hi bahaarein thi
बहारें ही बहारें थीं 

chalo phir dhoond laayein hum
चलो फिर ढूँढ  लायें हम 

usi masoom bachpan ko
उसी मासूम बचपन को 

Ke jab sawan barasta tha
के जब सावन बरसता था 

aur us kaghaz ki kashti ko
और उस काग़ज़ की कश्ती को 

banaana aur dubo dena
बनाना और डुबो देना  

bahut acha sa lagta tha
बहुत अच्छा  सा लगता था 

aur is duniya ka har chehra
और इस दुनिया का हर चेहरा 

Bahut sacha sa lagta tha
बहुत सच्चा सा लगता था 

chalo phir dhoond laayein  hum ....
चलो फिर ढूँढ लायें हम

Yaadein...यादें

Jis lifafe pe 'yaadein' likha tha..
जिस लिफ़ाफ़े पे 'यादें' लिखा था 
wo kahin rakhkar bhool gaya hoon.
वो कहीं रखकर भूल गया हूँ 
aaj phir wohi lifafa dhoond raha tha..
आज फिर वही लिफाफा ढूँढ रहा था 
kuch aur band lifafe mile..
कुछ और बंद लिफाफे मिले 
ek pe masoomiyat ki mohar lagi thi 
एक पे मासूमियत की मोहर लगी थी 
ek par khushi ka pata likha tha..
एक पर ख़ुशी का पता लिखा था 
khali lifafe the kuch, ek mere bhi naam likha tha..
खाली लिफाफे थे कुछ ,एक मेरे भी नाम लिखा था 
khola to kuch nishan us par nazar aaye..

Awesome Polish Paintings by Malgorzata Neigel

Małgorzata Niegel (sometimes spelled Malgorzata Neigel) is a contemporary Polish painter.

Here are some key details about her:

• Style and Subjects: Her art is often figurative oil painting and is characterized by a high degree of attention to detail. She frequently incorporates Christian, biblical, symbolic, and spiritual themes in her works, drawing inspiration from ancient history, psychology, and the Orient. Some of her works also feature dandelions, which she uses as a symbol of freedom and the human spirit.

• Technique: While she studied various techniques in school, she considers herself self-taught in oil painting, perfecting her technique over the years. She sometimes combines traditional paint with gold in the form of metal flakes or pasts.

• Education: She graduated from the art high school at Carolinum in Nysa, Poland.

• Recognition: She is a professional artist who has participated in various exhibitions and competitions, including the "Who Art You" exhibition in Milan.

Her artistic approach is very intentional; she views each painting as a "story, a puzzle, a rebus" where every detail and its placement is carefully considered and analyzed.

Paintings by David Cheifetz

David Cheifetz is a highly acclaimed contemporary American oil painter known for his powerful and distinctive style that often blends realism with abstraction and imaginative elements.

Here are the key details about his life and work:

 Art Style and Technique

• Genre: His work spans contemporary realism, imaginative realism, and more recently, abstraction. He is particularly known for his still life and figurative work.

• Aesthetic: His paintings often reflect the language of dreams, featuring dark, intriguing tableaux with a strong use of chiaroscuro (strong contrast between light and dark). This creates a dramatic and sometimes bizarre narrative atmosphere.

• Technique: Cheifetz primarily paints alla prima, meaning he applies wet paint onto previous layers of wet paint. He works directly, often using both a brush and a palette knife to create prominent, expressive, and textural brushstrokes without relying on detailed underpainting or studies.

Career and Background

• Former Architect: Cheifetz was originally a trained architect (graduating from the University of Washington) before deciding to pursue art full-time in 2009. He attributes his eye for precision and composition, in part, to his architectural background.

• Training: He received training in traditional representational painting at the Schuler School of Fine Arts in Baltimore.

• Recognition: He is an internationally collected artist whose work has been featured in major publications and exhibited in various solo and group shows.

• Current Location: He lives with his family in Olympia, Washington, USA.

Key Artistic Themes

While his subjects include figures, cityscapes, and still life, they are unified by his unique approach:

• Still Life Elevation: He finds the challenge of elevating ordinary, inanimate objects to the stature of a figure or a landscape to be one of the most exciting aspects of his work.

• Narrative and Symbolism: His paintings often suggest bizarre and intriguing narratives, leading the viewer to interpret the dream-like or otherworldly scene.

He is also a respected art educator, offering workshops and seminars on his painting techniques.

Here is an overview of his work and artistic characteristics:

Myoe Win Aung's Watercolor Style

• Subject Focus: His primary inspiration comes from the everyday life of the Burmese people, with a strong emphasis on Buddhist religious life. His most recognized works often feature:

  • Monks and Novices: Depicting young monks and nuns, often in procession, or going about their daily routine.

  • Monsoonal Rain: A particularly popular theme is the depiction of figures—especially monks—walking in the monsoonal rain, using traditional umbrellas. He is known for brilliantly capturing the effects of rain, mist, and reflections on the water-laden ground.

  • Simplicity and Composition: His work is praised for its excellent composition, using simple backgrounds and framing to draw the viewer's eye to the figures and the atmosphere.

• Medium: While he also works with oil colors, he is most internationally recognized for his mastery of watercolor, using the medium to create a delicate and atmospheric quality in his paintings.

• Background: Born in Yangon in 1972, Myoe Win Aung graduated from the State School of Fine Arts, Yangon, and studied under several masters, including U Lun Gywe.

His "water paintings" capture the light, color, and spiritual depth of Burmese culture and daily existence, making him one of the country's most collected contemporary artists.
