Sometimes certain talents can never be taught.
It’s an inborn trait some individuals are blessed with. Ever since M.Lokeswara
Rao was a little child he had this different inclination towards drawing and
sketching. He always had a different way to look into things with an altered
perspective with a different perceptive ability. Imagination has no barrier. It
is stronger than anything known to man, faster than the speed of light, deeper
than the ocean of thoughts. It is the seed for the basic intellect of
creativity & innovation. The displayed works are just some mere examples of
reinvention of creative bliss. Every work has a deep thought and meaning
supporting its visual description.
