On our return home from the Sunday church service a surprise awaited us.

A group of artists were busy sketching the various homes at Matharpacady .

Here there are quaint homes, which are an artists delight .

Zanabka has been bringing these groups on a regular basis .

I got talking to her and then photographed a few pictures as a memory of this village which may vanish and give way to skyscrapers . She mentined this as a norm and how very few such oarts remain in Mumbai today .

Later there was another surprise for me when I saw a young man doing caricatures . One of them was of me . He drew this while I was busy with my camera .

These few moments made my day .

It left me with a wish that our homes in Matharpacady in some way do not disappear in a few years .
