Bhubaneswar: As the Christmas season has finally arrived, a miniature artist has welcomed the festive season in a unique way through his miniature church art.

Miniature artist Eswar Rao has crafted a miniature church with 'Merry Christmas' written at the base of the craft. He has fixed the same inside a bottle.

Rao has said that he had made the miniature using solid clay. He said that he had moulded each piece of clay into brick-like shapes and used glass pieces to create the base of the miniature church.

He said that it was challenging to shape a wall-like structure and place it inside the bottle.

Meanwhile, the artist has wished everyone a 'Merry Christmas' and has urged the people to spread the message of peace and love.
