last month. I saw the Carnatic dance by your daughter, she was very elegant in
her performance. Is she doing some classes for the same?

Kumar. Will surely convey your compliment to Shrusti. She is practising her art

performance to her grandparents.

as well. Have a nice day, Mrs. Naidu.

--------------------------
|
Annie |
: Hello Smita.
Many many happy returns of the day to you. |
|
Smita |
: Hey Annie. Thank you so much for coming.
You look lovely. |
|
Annie |
: Thank you dear.
Thank you for inviting me. You have a beautiful house. And yes this
dress, remember we bought 2 dresses together from the mall last month.
This is one of them. |
|
Smita |
: Oh yes! I
remember the dress now. Talking about the house, this construction is my
father’s design. He is an architect and is into designing homes. Hey! You
yourself is a very good artist, I have seen your sketch works. I think
you should meet my father, you will get more inspiration to draw and
also who knows, you might get some more insight to plan your
future with your skills. |
|
Annie |
: Very true
Smita. Where is your father? Since I have never met your parents, I think I
should be taking this opportunity to meet them. |
|
Smita |
: Come this
way. (Reaching the
space where her father was standing) Here! Meet my
father. |
|
Father |
: This is my
friend, Annie, who loves art. I think you could help her to seek guidance
related to how she can channel her skills to better use. |
|
Annie |
: Annie, he is my
father, Mr. Shamkumar and the beautiful lady sitting next to him is Mrs.
Shradha, my mother. |
|
Smita’s father |
: Hello Annie.
It’s a pleasure to finally have met you. Smita keeps talking about you
a lot. Glad that you both have bonded pretty well. |
|
Annie |
: Hello Uncle.
Thank you so much for your kind words. She is just over reacting to my
work. I am still learning, and just keep sketching when I get some time. |
|
Smita’s father |
: That is indeed
a great way to use your free time, Annie. So tell me Annie what sort of artwork
do you prefer? And what is the inspiration behind your interest in artwork? |
|
Annie |
: Uncle, my
mother is an art teacher. From her I used to learn. I prefer architectural
drawings surrounding more natural elements. I visualise living in a
multi- utility space, surrounded by lots of trees, mountains near the
sea. |
|
Smita’s father |
: That is a
really stunning concept Annie. I would love to see your artwork. Maybe
we can work on some good ideas. Do enjoy the party dear. And hope to see
you often. Smita’s mother is also into sketching, we all plan something
productive. |
|
Annie |
: Surely I will stay connected with both of you. Thank you so much for guiding me right. |
