"The young amateurs hold a lot of promise but lack of exposure to the works of renowned artists and inadequate training facilities to hone their skills are reflected in their works." This was the comment of one of the judges of THE HINDU Young World On-the-Spot Painting Competition held at Swarna Bharati Indoor Stadium in Visakhapatnam last year.

"Though there is a growing interest in art among the general public, vested interests are only trying to 'cash' in on the situation but are not making any effort at promoting and sustaining that interest," he felt.
