Let us go
Then you and I
Over the moon
Into the sky!

Vitthal in the making!
Devotion creates its own God...
A stone is being carved, later the finer details will be in Brass using the Devrai Rock Dhokra technique...

Rabindranath Tagore on Shivaji!

'A few distant centuries ago, on a nondescript day

I can barely imagine

Upon what craggy hilltop, within a dense sunless forest

O sovereign Shivaji

Lightning-like, across your forehead, there flashed

The thought from above-

“With a singular religious thread, this torn up, fragmented

Bharata, I shall bind in One.”...'

Art in Education
In the fast paced world of quick response and short attention span of today, there is no time for pondering or mulling over. Art creates that space for reflexion and assimilation so necessary between inspiration and its expression. Hence its necessity to be an integral part of the education system and not remain a mere leisure time activity or a hobby!

At Devrai Art Village, I like to row my boat on the Lily pond or we sit for hours gossiping under the fragrant Citrus tree! Want to come?

Our homage to Mission Shaurya!

Ice axe mementos for the 11 Adivasi boys and girls who climbed Mount Everest this year!
For Balsingh Katlami our artist from Devrai, it was a challenge of a different kind to have these ice axes hand crafted in wax and cast in Brass in a record time of 10 days in this wet weather!
Hatsoff to the potential of these tribal kids who can excel in any field if given proper training.
