The Statue Of Liberty is a colossal neoclassic sculpture on Liberty Island in New York Harbor. This copper statue on a metal framework towering to a height of 46 meters and built in the late nineteenth century, 1886 to be precise got me awestruck. The first thing that came to mind was that I needed to recreate this in the form of a painting. Frankly I had attempted it once, nearly completed it and then realized that one of the spokes on the headdress seemed to be at a slight tilt compared to the actual statue. Being a perfectionist, I decided to make it right. That ruined the whole painting and I could just not get it to look right. I was hurt badly at that time as all my efforts had gone been wasted, but I swore that I would paint it
