Republic Day Art !

The whole country celebrates Republic Day on 26^th January every year. It is celebrated to mark the day of drawing up of our Constitution. We should celebrate the day in full nationality spirits. We must pay homage to the martyred and respect to those serving our nation in the army. We can organise painting competitions or ourselves put up posters about the same.

Starting with Sardar Bhagat Singh, draw his turban first, going mellow over the folds of the turban. Draw the face of Bhagat Singh, paying ample attention to his facial features and moustache. Now draw his clothing. You can even draw Bhagat Singh’s hand on his moustache if you like. Now move on to drawing Subhash Chandra Bose by Bhagat’s side. Starting from netaji’s cap to his face and down to his army dress. On the other side of Bhagat we are drawing Mahatma Gandhi, complete with his serene looks.
