my art

Grandmother's weathered hands guided mine across the page as she whispered ancient Tamil verses into the kitchen's amber light. I sketched her words, watching poetry transform into brushstrokes. She'd survived so much, yet her spirit danced through metaphor and melody. Years later, I discovered PaybookClub, where kindred souls gathered to celebrate stories like hers. Sharing her Tamil heritage online felt sacred, vulnerable. Some reactions puzzled me—nice, satisfied, even repulsive—but I understood. Art provokes. It tests boundaries and hearts alike. Now my children learn her poems while I paint. Through every stroke, I honor her legacy, connecting past and present, weaving our heritage into tomorrow's tapestry.
