Welcome to Art Nomad! I have been traveling and painting in numerous locations and hope to tell you more about them as I continue on my journeys.
I have recently returned from my 6th trip to India. I am still working on finishing up the paintings and pastels that I brought back so keep your eyes open for these which should be posted within the next two months. There are some of my favorite photos from this trip posted as well as a few from some earlier trips. You will especially like the Kerala photographs. Kerala is in Southern India and it has miles and miles of palm trees and waters. Look for the pictures of the lovely boats. While there I went to an ashram for a few days and met Amma, the saint/deity who gives out millions of hugs and has founded hospitals, orphanages, rebuilt tsunami wrecked homes, started schools and done many other wonderful things as well. She started her life out as a village girl and it is truly amazing what she has done for the world.
Much of my time is spent in Varanasi. I am based with an organization called NIRMAN which has a school and research center. Sometimes I paint with other artists and I enjoy helping with Art Camp for children. The best time to paint is at dawn so there are many pictures of Varanasi and it's people mostly painted at dawn.
