Artists using technology are breaking new ground, said Director of Sri Durga Malleswara Siddhartha Mahila Kalasala T. Vijaya Mahalakshmi on Sunday (October 8).
Speaking at the valedictory session of a two-day digital painting exhibition jointly organised by Vijayawada-based Forum for Artists and Joshua Cultural Forum, she complimented the organisers for ushering in a new trend for the first time in Andhra Pradesh. The talent displayed by young children in the digital painting contest was remarkable, she said.

Senior artist (painter) A. Jayashree Prabhakar was felicitated by members of the Forum for Artists and mementos were presented to U. Venugopal and A. Giridhar, who adjudged the paintings.
