Pichwai Painting - Senior Citizen Art workshop

Pichwai by Artist Kalamrukh. *This is for reference. The workshop image is different.

Overview

Intricate and visually stunning, Pichwai painting originated over 400 years ago, in the town of Nathdwara near Udaipur, Rajasthan to depict tales from Lord Krishna's life. Pichwai painting was originally drawn on fabric scroll to decorate the backdrop of Sreenathji deity in the temple of Nathdwara.

Celebrations such as Sharad Purnima, Raas Leela, Janmashtami with Radha, gopis, cows, lotuses, parrots, peacocks are commonly found themes painted with great splendour and artistic finesse. Traditional Pichwai art, swathed in deep-hued pigments and embellished with gold and silver, have found a place in the homes of art connoisseurs and art museums across the world.

Vanaja Arvind Kamal gives such minute precise instructions and demonstrations that it is easy to follow. Project right size so no mad rush and we could relax and paint. She also gave us the freedom to decide how we want to choose our palette. Each one got creative and did individual creative work. This is the way to go to grow as artist and gain confidence. Thank you 50+ Voyagers for organizing great painting workshops.
Samina Garari First of all to Thank You 50+ Voyagers for the initiative you all are taking for keeping us seniors creatively n thus happily busy. You really reach out for very good artists in various art forms - so many we haven’t heard off also. I have thoroughly enjoyed the Knife palette painting class. Kamal is superbly talented and her technique of teaching us lay people patiently step by step is truly appreciated. I myself couldn’t believe when i looked at my final painting that this is what I have done. For a person like me who hasn’t lifted a paint brush after school, it's a great achievement. Keep rocking 50+ Voyagers n I look forward to more of such talented artist classes. Discovering my hidden talents in the lockdown days 😊
Kunjan Trivedi The abundance of colour, the deftness of strokes, the resulting texture, feel and the impact of the painting, were all exhilarating in this two-day knife painting workshop. Thank you 50+Voyager@silverspace for organizing it and the amazingly talented resource person Ms Kamalrukh, who guided us smoothly through it with her excellent technique, tips and encouragement.
Kiran Joshi Thank you Ms Kamalrukh and 50 plus Voyagers. Working on knife painting with acrylic was something like opening stream of subconscious and has personally touched the inner core of self. It evoked feeling of joy. I really really enjoyed doing these paintings.
Gladys Had a soul- satisfying weekend learning acrylic painting using the palette knife technique. Ms. Kamal made the classes special with her gentle way of teaching and sharing from her wide knowledge & experience. I immensely enjoyed painting the two pictures.....one in vivid colours and the other in muted wintry colours. Thank you 50 Plus Voyagers, Vaibhav and Kamalrukh for the great experience.
Inderpal Rai Thank you 50 Plus Voyagers for organizing a trek into the world of Art. It's as rejuvenating as a live travel into the Himalayas. Inspiring and invigorating in the present times. All the resource persons for Acrylic painting, Kalamkari and Warli art with artists Avanish, Monali and Shreya respectively were excellent artists and above all very motivating teachers. Enjoyed every moment of the class. A big THANK YOU.
Bina John Kamal is an excellent teacher, brings a fun element into teaching while also being very patient and explaining the various techniques including mixing colours in so much detail. She pointed out our mistakes and told us how to correct them while at the same time encouraging us to bring our individuality into our paintings . My first attempt at using a palette knife and thrilled to have learnt a new technique. My classmates in learning also bring their own innovations to each painting, helping the others get new ideas to use in future paintings. Kudos to 50+ Voyagers for helping us learn so many new varieties of painting during the lockdown.
Sonia Jaisingh I have taken classes on the Warli, watercolor and Acyclic painting classes. I enjoyed every minute of the class. The instructors are very professional and take a lot of effort to show us the techniques and use of the media. It is almost meditative learning a new skill set. Thank 50+ Voyagers for organizing these sessions. Appreciate all the hard work that goes behind theses classes.
T. K. Visweswaran The workshop on travel painting with watercolor was very good. We enjoyed it totally. The artist who conducted it was very patient and did her job very well. It was nice on your part to have organised such an activity when life otherwise is dull and confined to home for people at our age group. Very thoughtful, indeed! !
Veena Kanuga Most of us have admired and appreciated folk art and other forms of painting. However it was the management of 50+ Voyages that encouraged us to try our hands at painting. Thanks to 50+ Voayegers team, the LOCKDOWN was made an uplifting experience by educating us in the techniques of various artforms ...be it Watercolor, sketching, Gond, Warli, Madhubani Folk Art . They engaged us in formats we have never dreamed of even experimenting...coffee painting, travel sketching and most recently Acrylic painting. Our young talented mentors deserve a big hug from us for being so patient with us. I hope we did not disappoint you 😉 Looking forward to many more interesting sessions
