Artist sketches ‘Bharat Mata’ with typewriter

AC Gurumurthy fleshed out an image of Bharat Mata by typing symbols, and special characters on the keyboard.

The drawing by Gurumurthy depicts the mother goddess killing coronavirus with the Trishul, related to the expected Covaxin launch in India.

Gurumurthy, who used to work in a bank earlier, uses large scale white sheets to bring out his art with his unique talent on paper.

Gurumurthy had also created a black and white portrait of Indian Air Force (IAF) Wing Commander Abhinandan Varthaman as a tribute for the valour in the face of extreme situations he faced in Pakistan during his captivity.

The artist has also created sketches of Mahatma Gandhi, Mother Teresa, former President APJ Abdul Kalam, and late Tamil Nadu chief minister J Jayalalalitha, among others.
