Khushwant Singh

Khushwant Singh Sahab, India's leading journalist, novelist and a lover of poetry, passed away today at his home in Delhi. I can only remember him as a humble person visiting me at my high altitude snow clad hospital at Chukha, Bhutan. He wrote about me in his columns in Times of India, 'With Malice Towards One and All' proclaiming me as 'The Mad Man of Bhutan'. This madness still persists. A Charcoal on Paper Drawing is all I did tonight, remembering of moments spent with him.

  1. Divine madness... without it we cannot create. Your sketch is fantastic. My father was an artist and he wold have loved your work. It is powerful and full of life and movement. Is there a compilation of his work out there or a place where I can find it? Also, I very much need to read YOUR work.
