What to say about myself? I was a housewife living in a small town called Dhangadhi, Nepal. Whenever I had free time I always used to create something like realistic art, portraits, etc. Later, I was getting orders to design book covers of local authors. Whatever I was making according to their book titles, they used to admire it. People started to suggest me that I had talent and I should bring it to the people.
I didn’t know what to make, which topic to pick, but I was very curious about spiritual aspect of human life. Whenever I got across an interesting article in newspapers, magazines or in any book, I used to read them very curiously and tried to know about it more deeply. And the thoughts which have affected me more, have found their way to my canvas.
My husband became my motivation to paint. I never had a teacher to learn from. For me the mother nature is the greatest teacher in the whole world and life is the biggest gift the nature can offer. Life, in many forms, comes with various new challenges in front of us which shows many ups & downs and goes along throughout our journey from birth to death. The way I experienced my life, I expressed it that way. I think that every sensation has its own state of mind and that in itself becomes a style.
I don’t know which style I have used in my art as I was never a professional. I painted for my happiness and I also stopped painting for my happiness. Currently I am not active in my art. I can’t say that when I will start again, but whenever that time comes it will be for my happiness because my soul lives in my art.
The game is Paltering Politicians. Role play as one of Pakistan’s paltering politicians and face several moral dilemmas along the way. Are you going to take the typical route and be one of the many political puppets or are you going to defend yourself and be the hero that the country needs?
Along the way, you can choose to rig the elections, but beware, the lie detector may catch you and give you a nasty shock.
The game ends when one player proves himself to be either the saviour of Pakistan or the reason for its demise.
“Paltering Politicians is a game based on outrageous incidents in Pakistani politics.Our politicians do so many unbelievable things that make the news, however, every time something new happens, the old stories are forgotten. I created this game to eternalize all these incidents, so people can constantly be reminded of their actions.” said Nashra, while talking to Times of Youth.
Paltering Politicians is designed by Nashra Balagamwala

I’m just an artist who loves bright horizons and color spots. For his work draws inspiration from one of my very clean and highly energy period full of hope and color, and these are the fifties and sixties of the last century. I try to crashing this colorful touch in today’s gray and material life.
I currently finished the transformation of a bar in Sofia, Bulgaria – and now his breath before the next project. I could barely detect the silhouette of the next project in the distance, but to let him surprise. my message to today’s youth: “you must be the wind blowing the answer – not those who are waiting for answers blowing in the wind”

I am a 22 year old guy and I’ve always lived in Padua, an Italian city near Venice. I never undertook art studies, I’ve studied in Scientific high school and after I had to choose who I wanted to be, so I tried the test of entry to the Academy of Fine Arts in Venice, after being admitted, I decided to take the road of design, without leaving my passion for drawing that I had since I was a child. In June 2014, however, I could not wait any longer and decided to paint and since then I have not stopped. In my work, I try to improve the quality of life around me, making the other person happier with my paintings. In fact, before I finish the paintings I ask the subject to finish the work with one final brush stroke made by her/him. In my work I use mainly primary colors, for everyone, because we are all equal, then I wonder what color is the soul of who I paint, and there the people are extremely precise (for example, they not just say green, but say green forest, green leaf etc.), so in the final brush stroke they use them, because if the portrait is beautiful, its thankfully due to the subject, to the person him/herself. In fact, if the people wouldn’t exist all this beauty wouldn’t be around us.
