Puppets -- Lovely Art

A puppet is a figure which represents a certain character and is manipulated by a puppeteer. It can be a depiction of a human or a non-human character. Puppets can be very simple in construction or extremely complex.
Varieties of puppets:
Finger puppet: This is a very simple variation of puppet that fits into a single finger. It has no moving parts and consists of a hollow cylinder shape to cover the finger.
Hand or glove puppet: This form of puppet is controlled by one hand that covers the interior of the puppet. The puppeteer controls the mouth and head and the puppet's body hangs over the entire arm. A sock puppet is a classic example of a hand or glove puppet made from a sock which is placed over the hand of the puppeteer.

For sock puppets you will need:

Socks
Glue
Scissors
Card board
Cereal Box
Chalk

Rod Puppet: A puppet made around a single rod to secure the head of a puppet is known as a rod puppet. It is controlled by the puppeteer by moving the metal rods attached to the hands of the puppet.
Marionette or string: This kind of puppet is supported by a number of strings and a central rod attached to a control bar held by the puppeteer.
Shadow puppet: Shadow puppet consists of a cut-out figure held between a source of light and a translucent screen

Embracing Evening Serenity: A Peaceful Stroll / Walk

A Tranquil Evening Walk As the sun begins to set, I step out for my evening walk, the air cool and inviting. The park is alive with the simple joys of life: children laughing as they play, dogs running freely with boundless energy, and birds singing their evening songs. Walking along the path, I greet familiar faces and exchange friendly waves with neighbors. Each step feels like a gentle unwinding of the day’s stresses, a soothing balm for the soul. Reconnecting with Nature and Friends The park is a vibrant tapestry of life. I meet a few friends along the way, and we share light-hearted conversations and laughter, the kind that refreshes the spirit. We pause to watch the playful antics of the dogs and the unfiltered joy of kids as they chase after each other. These simple, everyday scenes remind me of the beauty in life's small moments, often overlooked but deeply enriching. A Serene Visit to the Temple My walk leads me to the local temple, a place of serene calm amidst the busyne...

Ahobilam Yatra Day 1: A Trek Through Divinity As dawn broke at 6 AM, we set off from our guesthouse. A sense of anticipation filled the air as we eagerly awaited the divine darshan of Ahobila Narasimha and Lakshmi at the Lakshmi Narasimha Temple, one of the 108 revered Divya Desams where Lord Vishnu's divine presence is felt.

Sri Malola Narasimha Swamy is the Aradhya Daiva of Sri Ahobila Matha. Then, we embarked on a challenging yet rewarding trek to Upper Ahobilam.
