"Harleen's Palette: A Journey Through Colors and Canvases"
Believe it or not, my journey into the world of painting started with a mischievous streak at the ripe age of five. Equipped with crayons, I decided that the living room wall was my canvas - a decision my parents fondly (and sometimes with a sigh) recall as the 'Great Wall Catastrophe of '99'. Since then, my tools have evolved from crayons to brushes, but the passion? That's as vivid as ever.
​
Painting for me is like finding an oasis in the desert. Amidst the structured logic of my day job as a software developer, where I converse in code, my paintbrushes offer a blissful escape, what I call is artistic escapism. Each stroke is a word, each color a sentence, forming a language that conveys my mood. It's almost magical how a palette and a canvas can turn a gloomy day into a burst of inspiration.
​
Funny thing is, each painting of mine is like a mood ring. Feeling joyful? You'll find splashes of bright yellows and playful pinks. Contemplative? Shades of blue will dominate the scene. It's not just art; it's a vibrant diary of my emotions.
​
Oh, and did I mention the cherry on top? I've snagged two national honors for my paintings. Not too shabby for someone who juggles arrays and algorithms by day and a palette by night, right?
In essence, whether I'm debugging code or mixing colors, creativity is the common thread. And no matter the mood, just a few brushstrokes have the power to pull me into a world of tranquility and fresh perspectives. Painting isn’t just a hobby; it’s a part of who I am.
