This year again I participated in a Drawing contest conducted by BigHelp on their annual meet to celebrate Pongal and Republic day Celebrations at Canton High School on Jan, 10, 2011. This time I took BigHelp theme and did this drawing which won me 2nd Prize in the category of 3rd,4th and 5th graders.The idea was to draw a needy kid who doesn't have any scope for education, not even food and clothes and looking fora helpig hand. A golden hand comes and helps him sending to School giving him education making him a happy kid. The Helping Hand comes from a responsible citizen. I tried to show the helping hand as nation, meaning Helping kid is helping the nation. The Sun on the left side is covered by a dark cloud, representing the dark life. On the right side, the kids life is filled with the glory of Education. Education is represented by Goddess Saraswathi's Veena and a Book. Also, I used appropriate colors to represent the life before help and the life after help.
Here is my trophy and Certificate.
Of course, my Dad was very happy and was the first one to Congratulate me.Me with my Trophy and Certificate:
