The auditorium was transformed into a vibrant and eclectic gallery, showcasing Omkara's stunning paintings and sculptures. Each walls were adorned with a diverse array of artworks, each one a reflection of the artist's inner world depicting a deep meaning. The paintings seemed to pulse with life, as if the colors and emotions had been distilled from Omkara's very essence.

As the manager, Mr. Kumar, walked alongside Omkara, his eyes widened in awe. "Omkara, these are breathtaking," he said, his voice filled with reverence. "Like Always You've truly outdone yourself more than before....these painting and sculpture are looking so realistic...."

Omkara smiled humbly, his eyes gleaming with pride. "Thank you, Mr. Kumar. I'm glad you like them. But you know na this exhibition is not just about showcasing my art. It's about giving back to the community."

Mr. Kumar nodded in acknowledgement..... "I know"

Omkara's expression turned serious. "Like always all the proceeds from this exhibition will be donated to the old age home and orphanage....so that it can be helpful for them...I believe that art should be used as a force for good, and I want to use my talents to make a positive impact on the world...and I hope you'll take care of it wisely...."

Mr. Kumar's eyes shone with admiration. "I'll surely do that ...That's truly commendable, Omkara. You're not only a talented artist, but a kind and compassionate human being as well...who would say despite Having a big name in society...you are so down to earth and kind hearted...."

Omkara smiled and nodded...

As they continued their tour, Omkara pointed out specific pieces...
"Mr.Kumar can you tell me what  meaning this painting is trying to convey"...

Mr Kumar -"I can only picturise it as a boy sitting at seashore and watching the sunset..."

Omkara nodded-"But for me the sketch of a boy sitting at the seashore watching the sunset holds a profound significance, as it embodies a moment of serenity, contemplation, and connection with nature.

To me, the boy in the sketch represents innocence, curiosity, and wonder. His gaze towards the horizon, where the sun meets the sea, symbolizes his longing for understanding and his awe for the vastness of the universe.

The sunset itself represents the fleeting nature of life, the passage of time, and the beauty of transformation. The vibrant colors of the sky and the sea evoke emotions of peace, tranquility, and hope.

The seashore, with its gentle waves and soothing sounds, provides a sense of calmness and stability, reminding us that even amidst life's turmoil, there is always a place to find solace and inner peace.

Through this sketch, I aimed to capture the essence of mindfulness, encouraging the viewer to pause, reflect, and appreciate the simple yet profound joys of life. The boy's presence in the sketch serves as a reminder to approach life with curiosity, wonder, and an open heart, just as he is doing in that serene moment by the sea.It's a reflection of the serenity and peace that can be found in nature....when you are dealing with the inner turmoil within yourself...to find a ray of hope ...."His eyes shining with pride while describing the sketch...

Mr. Kumar nodded thoughtfully, taking in the details of the sketch.

As they approached the left corner of the auditorium, Omkara paused in front of a sculptor displayed on a raised platform, covered with a black cloth. His eyes sparkled with a hint of protectiveness as he turned to Mr. Kumar and said, "This is something special. Make sure no one - I mean no one - should come near this corner. This will not be part of the sale. I want to ensure that it remains private."
