Art Description (What inspired you to create the artwork?) 'Tea Point Tales' is an illustration based on the idea to depict a local tea stall in a traditional Indian
village. Here, oral history lives in its unadulterated form; everyone has a story, and that story is kept
alive through the simple act of discussing it. The entire drawing is bustling with the intimacy of everyday
life ,where every elements' the way a fellow villager rests bodyweight on the fence, the exact homey
arrangement of kitchen equipment, the familiar checkered patterns represents one more consciousness
in the breathing community that is our home.

It isn't just a place to get something to drink in a hurry; it's a stage on which life unfolds and memories steep
in the warmth of a good time. The tea wasn't just something to drink; it was something that brought back
memories of my life were based on. It was fun like all the rest, but my favorite part was the tea. Tea has
steamed ,foamed and filtered its way into the hearts of millions' likely billions' of people. Unremarkable tea ,so seamless and inoffensive, quietly exists; It isn't a status symbol; it doesn't have a trendy shop on every corner. A cup of tea is a cup of tea, nothing more. Through this piece, I portray the idea that tea joint is more than just a place to get refreshed, but it is a place of hearth and comfort where staying warm is not only not only in the beverage but also in the relationships that are being built one cup at a time.
