Here's a recent exhibition that I wish I could've seen-- "Christian Folk Art from India" at Augusta Savage Gallery at UMass from December 12 - 16, 2011, where each piece in the collection is a painted cloth scroll depicting a Christian story or concept... the scrolls were used by Chitrakars, traveling painters/storytellers in the Bengal province of India, and the scrolls were used to help illustrate the stories that the Chitrakars shared with communities. In the 20th century, they occasionally used their traditional motifs and techniques to portray Christian subjects. Also included in the show are works by Christian Indian artist Frank Wesley, as well as other Christian artworks and artifacts such as brass crucifixes, clay creches, posters, and other objects. The works in the collection are owned by Georgana Falb Foster, 83, an independent scholar of South Asian studies and member of the American Council of Southern Asian Art. In the 1990s, she gave the collection to the Museum of Art at the University of Iowa as a research collection. She has given papers at the Conference of South Indian Religion and the Wisconsin South Asian conference and is a co-author of a chapter on the pilgrimage to the popular goddess Vaishno Devi in Jammu in "Sacred Geography of Goddesses in South Asia" Scholarly Books (2010).

It is Sunday and today I have some poppies for you! I wanted to practise the layering technique which I love, but which I am often too restless to be successful with... (you need to wait for your first layer to dry completely before you add the next - Layering is the beauty of transparent watercolor but waiting is so, so difficult... If you want to see more of my watercolors you can either click the "My Watercolors" button in the top list or in my Watercolors file on Pinterest; http://www.pinterest.com/peppermint42/watercolors - the paintings there are not only by me, though I wish because I've collected some favorites! If I've used a reference photo it can most often be found in my "For paintings" folder on Pinterest. Have a great Sunday, hugs, Karin
