Odyssey '04

If I start writing about this painting...it would never end. School days were after all the best days. This was a background for our Annual School Cultural Competition, 'Odyssey' for the year 2004-05. I with the help of Payal Devani and Shailee Porecha were able to finish this 5.5ft long and 10ft wide poster in a period of 1 month. This is the pictorial illustration of one of the many adventures of Odysseus, the hero of Homer's epic poem, Odyssey. Here, Odysseus (tied) is being helped by his crew to escape the island of the Sirens. The Sirens, are evil creatures who hypnotize travelers by their songs n make them stay on their island forever.


No wonder, Odysseus was having a difficult time resisting the Sirens ;)
