Kamlesh Chavda

?Idleness is a bigger curse than poverty. When a man earns by the sweat of his brow, it gives him more satisfaction than what he earns by the stroke of luck,? says artist Kamlesh Chavda who is unveiling an exhibition of his 20 artworks today which are inspired from hardships of life that a poor person encounters daily.????I would see the rickshaw pullers and labourers working on the street and realise they too play an integral part in our economy and captured their toil,? he adds. Forty-year-old Chavda's collection includes 11 drawings on paper with black pen and 9 paintings on canvas with acrylic colors which took four months to complete.?
