Wow Anirudh! It's Simply beautiful! Thank God, you didn't color this! The gopurams, hanging lamps and circular Sun with 'om' inside....everything is perfect on a natural floor! Btw, how long did you take to draw this, that too outdoors?

Astounding Presentation!! The strokes especially the curvy ones (the flame) are too appealing, I bet I can't draw like you. The top manapams look pretty. All the best.

Anirudh, so many time I opened this page and kept admiring. could not get proper words to express my appreciation. Design... A well thought out complicated design choosen, which gives a real challenge in executing it. Dot count..... It is not easy to put this in a short time without referring the pape drawingr.. You have done it perfectly . Drwaing...... Excellent. The strokes are very neat and at the bottom they are round and at the top of the towers they are elongated with a stylish twists and turns.The rays of the sun, the flames of the deepams and the cute wall/ attached deepams, hanging ones and the top circles in the centre towers are all drawn extremely artistic. The base......the terrece floor is giving an ancient look to this kolam, as thought it is drawn in an old Mahal,. centuries ago . Photography........wonderful, it gives the perfect effect as though we are standing infront of the tower, thanks for taking the trouble of climbing up the water tank to click this beauty in this angle. Coloring........ With only white color podi you have created such a beauty, I donot think colors will give this effect. ( Anyhow if you color it and upload we are ready to admire that also) So on the whole a " Towering Beauty"!, rajamma
