20: Padmakar Kappagantula Part 1/7 : Growing Up in a World of Imagination

In this first segment, we delve into Padmakar’s childhood – a wonderful world of imagination as he puts it, surrounded by his favourite books and illustrations which provided a painfully shy boy a cocoon to discover and nourish his artistic skills as a young child. He speaks of his growing years in Secunderabad & Chennai, his first painting of a blue elephant as a young kid, the role of his immediate and extended family in influencing his perspectives and rooting his artistic frame of mind. Happy listening.
