On February 13, 2024, Greenwood High School organized a remarkable event where 36 student artists of Greenwood Art Club gathered at Warangal Fort to participate in a live pencil drawing session of Warangal Fort. The event was guided and facilitated by the school’s art department teachers Ms. Banaja Sahoo and Mr. G. Santosh Rao
The live drawing event involved artists creating artwork in real-time, capturing the essence and details of a subject directly from observation. In this instance, the subject was Warangal Fort, a significant landmark or scene chosen for its cultural or historical relevance. The artists used pencils as their primary medium, allowing them to explore shades, textures, and intricacies of the subject with precision and creativity.
