The Kala Ghoda Signature Campaign

With the festival coming in news for wrong reasons there was signature campaign to save the festival as of complaints received to stop the festival on roads.
Even after so many years the Kala Ghoda Arts Festival is celebrated with the same enthusiasm and fanfare. There are artists who wait to display their art for the whole year and to participate even with a small stall , some make customized artworks for sale at the festival and some waiting for public exposure at a vast level.
wish the festival luck, and many many years of such happiness and being a great opportunity to artists continue...
 as notices of Do Not Photograph   were all around but public did not heed nor did the artists take any objection as they were happy to get happy visitors look at their art!

Meaning of Reiki Symbol to Heal Karmic Attachments

Reiki symbol for healing the past lives, karmic blockages and present turmoils Hon Sha Ze Sho Nein, as say Reiki Masters, connecting, beyond space, time with symbols. A very rarely used symbol most of my works till date have the emotional healing symbol, one that connects the body soul and forms a triple connection, man woman child. And the power symbol Cho Ku Rei, meaning literally "put the power here'.

Refreshing Blessings

Moving to another level in healing this symbol has energies to connect over space and time and bring about healing at the present and past levels. Reiki can be used to give protection, purification, improve health and wealth, heal struggles and easen out the self from emotional as well as physical turmoils and blockages. This symbol works on the mental and conscious level of mind , acting as a bridge.
In simple meaning the symbol indicates no past no present no future. The symbol at soul level heals all past traumas and energies that are blocking progress in the present.
The best part of Reiki is that it can be used to heal your future. By using this powerful symbol incidents, occasions and circumstances can be planned and healed for a healthy future.
Reiki will give what is ethical, appropriate from the divine, and what is good in your interests.
Intentions of the healer are very important otherwise these are just lines.
I have always mentioned, the universe has everything in abundance, we just have to tap this. Reiki symbolic paintings are in no way a replacement to traditional medicines or replacement to medical therapies. But Reiki is a powerful tool to heal at the emotional and karmic level bringing about peace and acceptance.
The basic cause of many problems coming up in life sometimes can be healed at the present but in case their are past life blocks they will, whatever you do, block progress and happiness, prosperity and wealth, in this present.
Stay Simple, Have Pure Thoughts, Have a Great Day!

How to Edit painting photographs Step by Step Process of editing of Painting Photographs some tips

How to edit photographs for display on the internet . With the whole world going digital, art is also online and many galleries have the facility to display artworks. There are websites for artists where they can display their art and which can reach a global audience.
Leaving  aside the trick of how to take great photographs, which we know is done by digital
camera (I will explain this in another post), choosing one of the highest resolution, even after taking the closest shot of your painting we always see there are some background remaining which does not give the photograph a good appearance for display. Here I explain step by step process in simple language of editing photographs after clicking for right images display.
1) Open the image from your folder of any one painting

The paintings photograph in your computer art folder

Microsoft Office Picture Editor

2) Top line go to Microsoft picture editor, click.
3) Select top bar edit pictures

Edit options for paintings photo

4) You will see a right hand side panel with options

Crop Option Selected

5) Select crop pictures. A black line comes on the page. With the mouse select the black line to the edge of your artwork image and leave aside all extra background that has come up in the photo.

Edit use Crop Option

6) Once done from all four sides remember to click OK other wise you will see no changes.

After Crop Image click OK Very Important

7) Now select brightness and sharpness contrast and here you have to go gradually lest you may spoil the image color and sharpness. Usually there is no need to edit color options with images taken in digital camera with proper lighting. 
8) Click on Save , very important. You can also save the image with this option as 'save as' and give the image a specific name of your artwork.
9)The final image of your artwork is ready to upload online.

Final Edited Neat Image of your painting ready to upload online

In this digital world we need to get sharp images of our works to be able to display and many online art galleries insist on a certain highest resolution pictures only for display in their online galleries, since they also sell art prints and here the highest resolution images of paintings the better the prints.

Meanwhile on with another symbolic artwork in progress, and the canvas on my wall" Embracing the Chaos" with another month beginning ,

Embracing The Chaos by Rizwana Mundewadi

looking at the beautiful canvas with a few strokes till date, this painting has begun on 31st December 2013 and hope to continue till end of this year that is December 31st 2014, InshaAllah. I had begun with warm colors red orange and then at the end of January the color turquoise had come up with a single straight stroke bang in the center of the canvas. 
Controlling the urge to splash paint over and finish the painting, umpteen ideas and colros in my mind, patience, this painting is a lesson in patience, focus. This time I have gone with spiritual colors vibrant blue, ultramarine blue and camlin blue loaded and royal color purple, the strokes look beautiful against the plain canvas, an innocent abstract work with an identity of its own)
While on this spiritual journey of The Red Pilgrim as I continue to paint healing art...I wish to make simple colorful understandable art, art that heals.

Water Color Painting Price Issues and Simple Tips While Painting with water colors

Water color paintings price issues always come up. Why is a water color painting in less price as compared to oil paintings in the same size. With oils on canvas paintings always commanding a higher price water color works sometimes lag behind. There are enough reasons for this. A complex medium to work in needs very good hand control and knowledge about colors.
How to paint with water colors , the flowy thin water medium which looks so simple while viewing is one difficult task. The main ingredient added will give results accordingly,  amount of water to be added is the main ingredient as less will make the paint not flow well and more will give a very light painting.
Hand made paper is a good option and there are some simple rules people follow who love to paint in this medium. While I did get obsessed with this medium in year 2002 trying out different techniques and mediums during the self discovery process thee are some fine beautiful pieces of musical lines collection and lots of untitled works, which I have no words,except that they were made when i listened to music,  daily , listening to the five elements instrumental, great music by great masters it was The Times Group albums on elements.  it was a Reiki ritual to help relax heal the chakras so I call them musical lines.

Untitled by Rizwana Mundewadi Year 2002 Water Color on paper 7.5x10 Inches $150

Tip 1) Be prepared with rags! yes wherever there is water keep rough clothes handy.
Tip 2) Think, Think Think before beginning, usually there is no looking back, one stroke and the painting gets muddy and too much water used to clean the faulty part, risk of paper tear.
Tip 3) Always use a clean brush. This I can tell as most important. Brushes do have the tendency to store old paint from last work done which is not even visible to the eye. Always clean the brush before every use and after every use.
Tip 4) First better to have a simple sketch and then begin. Paint the insides first or the outline first as you wish but the rule of the thumb , paint light colors first and then move to darker ones.
Tip 5) The paintings dry sooner than expected so sometimes layering is necessary. Use a lighter color thin paint first and then add another layer of same color for best results in water color paintings. This i have found to work better than adding a darker color at first. Usually helps to build some drama with water colors, than having the flat works.  The biggest advantage in water color paintings, they do not soil the hands and the clothes and the sinuses!yes oils do emit fumes while painting and process of drying.
Water color paintings give an effect of lightness and delicate appeal to the eyes as compared to my first love oils, which are thicker and have a solid feel. Paintings in water color are usually found at less rates as compared to oils as the cost of mediums involved is different.

With due respect to all water color artists across the globe , Prices are very much different for other medium works and though famous artworks do get good prices there is always a difference.  Some simple reasons-
1) Cost involved in buying mediums is totally different . while a tube of color paint in oils costs much higher the water color one is bought at reasonable rates. 
2) Paper used as base for most artworks in water color is found to be cheaper as compared to canvas or oil sketch paper that comes at a much higher price.
3) The whole process of painting in oils requires more time and effort , energy and also space for drying. (with due respect to all water color artists)
4) The feel in water color works is light and it all depends upon personal choice of the buyers as they love a more colorful oil works.

5) Now I am not very sure of this but canvas is thought to last longer than paper. There is always risk of paper getting musty, eaten by bugs and even the glue used while framing can spoil the artworks over years.

so, While on this spiritual journey of The Red Pilgrim, as I continue to paint healing art...I wish to make simple colorful understandable art, art that heals.

Trekking to Karnala Bird Sanctuary was a welcoming refreshing trip in the beginning of this 2014 year.
Climbing the fort is not an easy task and really not for simple trekkers. A birds paradise, Surrounded with thick growth the forest  has a uphill narrow man made path among rocks which trekkers enjoy. Rare Birds are really worth the trip and true bird lovers do visit the place before sunrise.
Not so much aware of bird names but I can identity the colors, blue , green and black red, exotic rare birds, its a haven for bird lovers. And with the series of exotic birds  paintings going in progress such trips make me wonder still, the paintings come first and then come the occasions, unlike where artists express that they were influenced by a trip or an image it is vice versa always with my art, I paint first by imagination and then things come forthe!

Some important practical tips for trekking-
1) Start early, trekking and climbing can be best enjoyed when you start early. And watching rare  birds in nature is  also only during the few early hours after sunrise. Winter seasons are good for such trips as there is less heat from the sun and climbing becomes easy, but also the days  are smaller, so be prepared for an early back trip.
 2) Shoes, very important, right soles, right fitting, right grip. Over the years we have come to understand the very importance of right shoes,  and heeled  sandals or slippers just wont do!Right size backpack to keep both hand free. Do not over load the back pack as this makes climbing and trekking difficult in small spaces of rocky areas.
3) Water and snacks, food, medicines in your backpack along with antiseptic cream, insect bites and dried tree scratches! immediately wash with clean water and apply cream for any scratches or insect bites.
Unless you are sweating do not drink much water. Take small sips only and do not gulp water in large quantities at one time.
4) Beware while walking and trekking in interiors of forest. creatures,  animals, birds, and creatures on the ground hidden among dried grass, unexpected falls while climbing and trekking, get the right firm grip. Look for footholds  first, shortest gaps among rocks, and then make small slow climb moves.
5) Inform your family or friends,  one who will look out for you when you go missing, when going on trekking trips. It is understood that most places in hilly and mountainous regions there is no mobile network.
Trekking brings you ultimate close to mountain strength, earth energy, grounding energy. Once there you are totally focused on which branch to catch or which rock to select as foothold. So when the basic instinct of survival comes up all negative energy is dissolved and mind becomes refreshed. It is very important for   every individual to be in close contact with earth and as today we are surrounded more with technology and electric vibrations it sure is worth to balance  energy, to have such contact with nature.
Go for trekking and climbing only when you are trained and fit, and have no major health problems, otherwise even walking is the best energiser.
So while we have still never completed the climb to the Panhalgad fort  , the top of the mountain peak we  know just when to stop and return  and call it a day!
The peacock bird sure was very happy to see us and truly showed his happiness! gave the best pose!
