Days November 2005
Visiting
Dutch artist Peter Weltevrede
will offer a 5 day Retreat in the North Indian technique
of Illuminated Painting used in traditional Deity paintings.
You will also create your own Yantra (Visual Mantra) Painting.
Pieter Weltevrede is a trained social scientist with an advanced
degree. Pieter met late Harish Johari in 1977 in Holland where
he became fascinated with the healing power of the ancient
tantric practice of yantra painting. He soon devoted his attention
to mastering the North Indian iconographic painting techniques,
studying with Master Chandra Bal and Suresh Johari .
Peter is now recognized by the Dutch government as a Master
Artist. This has given him the freedom to travel once or twice
a year to India for extended stays. Pieter illustrated "
The Birth of the Ganga ", " The Monkeys and the
Mango Tree ", " Ayurvedic Massage ", and the
latest edition of the book " Chakras " by Harish
Johari.
Pieter Weltevrede is currently working on a series of 72 paintings
that show the various states of Being related to the chakras
, as described in the Leela game of Self-Knowledge .
