Celebrations

'School is out'  is a very special painting for me. Its one of my very first paintings and also my first 'sold' piece as well. Its always exciting to see it hanging in our friend's house whenever we visit them.   A few days ago when I was going through my sketches, I came across the photograph. I was delighted since I didn't remember documenting it.  

I am also very proud to share a first by my daughter - she filmed the Lion Dance Parade celebrating the Chinese New Year in New York city's Chinatown.  I think she did a great job!
