Pre-historic, nomadic people took shelter in caves, drew images of hunting on cave walls with charcoal and rocks, perhaps as an outpouring of their mind’s eye, and so, the first painting was born. Art as an expression of human skill and imagination, continues to enthral us to this day. The popularity and value of art should not be gauged from the amount of money a connoisseur spends to acquire it, but by the hours spent by an enraptured art lover just gazing at it. Beauty, as they say, lies in the eyes of the beholder.
