Arvind and Santosh-Artists and Wonderful Human Beings.


Arvind and Santosh are two brothers who are incredible artists and human beings.  They are artists for the famous Udaipur speciality of pinchwai paintings.  I stop by their shop throughout my days laughing and joking with them and having a nice painting session. One night, we sit and laugh about a Chinese couple who keeps coming in and out trying to bargain on a painting.  They finally settle at one price and we are able to leave the store one hour later.   Like many shop owners, they work hard selling during tourist season and then during off season they paint.  They paint pictures of Krishna-Radha love story, Gods (Ganesha, Shiva, Lakshmi, Vishnu, etc.), elephants, camels, mythological characters, fairy tales, etc.  An honest person making an honest living.
