Guys, hello everyone! I want to share with you my memories of my trip to India. ❤
India is a shabby, warm country. While I was sunbathing in the sun in India, in Russia there was severe frost and snow.
My impressions of India
Goa in comparison with other states is very Europeanized. When they came to others, they looked at us like savages, as if the first time white people see.
On the Goa Hindus-majors from the local, and those that are not local-visitors, who for the sake of earning there. Well, beggars are the same as everywhere, just like in Russia we have gypsies. They have absolutely no traffic rules. They drive like they do. As well as everywhere in Asia) Pedestrians are not missed if you do not jump out onto the road. They ride bikes and scooters mostly. 30% approximately drive cars. But in machines there is no such dispersion as in us (from a penny to a porsche) at them if the car that necessarily good new foreign car. 80% go to Suzuki. Tuk tuki. Moped with passenger seats and booths. Straight the perfect taxi there 👌.
They have cows like our dogs in Russia. The same stray, no one's, well, the dogs, too. They both sleep together. Cows are not even milking. They go where they want, on the road in the middle and they go round them stupidly. In the daytime they hide somewhere and at night climb out, a herd of 10 pieces worth of garbage eatenThey have a lot of garbage there. They clean only at home and in cafes, shops. Everything is lying on the streets. But this quickly gets used to everything.
What I did in India. Goa
On the beach, I met the dawn and saw off the sunset. This is a very romantic place. I watched slowly, and at the same time a bright bright sun comes out from behind the horizon.
It's a beautiful view, I'm fascinated by the pastel of the morning beach. I bathed in the ocean at sunset, catching the glare of the sun on the surface of the water. I ran barefoot on the sand, I would blink into the darkness on the ocean, listening to the sound of the waves.
I lay on the sand and looked at the bright star that peeped out from behind the roof in the banana leaves, and drank red wine.
Shiva. Shiva's face is made of stone. This beach is a vagator.
The sculpture of Shiva's face on Vagatore is the pride of the city of Vatagor, which is a face carved from stone on the rock near the sea with a necklace of skulls, and with his faithful companion - a cobra. The necklace symbolizes victory over the flesh and all material, and the cobra is the embodiment of the eternity and immortality of God. The sculpture of Shiva's face is on Vagator Beach, one of the most northern beaches of Goa, in the north-west of Vagator Village. The stone face of Shiva is an interesting place not only for the followers of Hinduism, but also for many tourists in Goa who like to be photographed against the backdrop of Vagator Beach and this unique sculpture.
On the tour went all the Goa in one day, their temples, the catholic ones too, the biggest waterfall, they swam there, and there the carp swims right around you, swarm right, huge, centimeters 40.
Legal drug (nut, one = 300ml Roma, chew and spit and you tit for 5 minutes) I never tried it, damn it. They made themselves spirits (as in the eagle and the river in the peasant's one) and went to the tusks (also on the air), the music they had in the clubhouse was good. And in general there everything is shown in films, landscapes, architecture, people wear everything on their heads, bags, jugs and other 😂
and they do not rush at all. Very very friendly and kind but also cunning.
Inspiration after a trip to India
After the trip to India, I began to draw a collection of "Children of the World."
India inspired me. Now I create a collection of "Children of the World" and I have already a large collection of elephants.
I like to draw as many people call "scary" people, they are interesting, inspiring, with their energy, their culture and traditions ...
I know that I will continue throughout my life (well, or the time when I can create) to supplement my series, but now a new one 👐 "Children of the World"
On the way more ... Well, in general, you'll see soon)
And by the way, they are not at all terrible ☝
I just love what I do and I'm ready to do this forever
They cook very tasty there, the service is also very good. They there first bring the fish permissible or shrimp show size and then what's fresh and then cooked for you. Well, in general you will be full. Shrimps are there more than my palm, just huge, and very tasty there prepare all kinds of seafood, but they are all very very sharp and you need to speak so that sharp spices are not put and otherwise you can not take it into your mouth even
This plate is huge is one serving of food
India is beautiful
My first impressions of India were quite pleasant. I was not even frightened by dirt and mountains of garbage. Some cities are cleaner, some are dirtier.
Spices and laundry soap
Some Indians smelled of spices or household soap. Why do they smell of spices I know, Indians in food will add a lot of spice. And very often a lot of pepper. But why I smell of household soap I do not know. But I can say one thing. What this means is that the Indians are clean!
On public beaches
There are a lot of sellers on the beach, what they offer: to do massage, buy something. From such a beach I was not delighted. On the beach stinks of gasoline, the assortment of local tents is mesmerizing - dusty incomprehensible shampoos, half-rotten fruits.
When I arrived in Goa
I said "Hooray, and here's a dream." Goa. "
I noticed a lot of traffic on the roads, an eerie dust, garbage everywhere.
A piece of India in my house
I bought these toys for memory. I wanted to put something in my house in Russia from India. So I wanted to have a little bit of India at home.
Attitude towards the people of India
Initially, everything seemed wild to me. When so many people say something to you, you do not understand them, this smell of spices. But then I realized that I was used to Hindus. If you rebuild inside and learn to react to them correctly - then they, it turns out, are nice people. I felt That these are very good people. India gives you a lot of opportunities, if you want to be alone, then go to a deserted beach, and so on.
Now I really miss India. In my memories from India, I sometimes draw sketches in a sketchbook.
I painted my dreams.
I noticed that many artists, when traveling, periodically throw everything and go on art walks. And I make sketches of the surrounding species. Personally, when I'm not traveling at all, I try to enjoy every minute of my vacation.I do my sketches when I'm home and the time has passed after the trip, when I start to miss my trip when I start dreaming about a new one. Then what I have postponed in my memory I draw on paper. More often these are simple and not complex sketches. Sometimes I draw in the period between large paintings to relieve tension. I do not like to draw sketches, because I like to draw something scale, for example a picture of the size of 1 meter. And sketches are quite something small, fast. Then, at leisure I make out them in one artbus page.
In my sketchbook you can see: seashells, islands, boats, people))
It's only I see it, because my hatch-book lies in the table and is pricked with a saw. Today I decided to share one of my sketches. This island is my dream :)
Draw warm countries, their inhabitants, the sea, ships, islands - this is mine.
This one likes the most ..I love to spend time on the beach)))
I love a good tan, so that my lips were tanned, swollen like after the first date ..))))
India. Wait for me
I really enjoyed traveling to India. I would love to go to India again. But unfortunately there is no such possibility. I remember how warm sand warmed my feet, the wolves of the ocean caressed me, I lay on the sand and caught the rays of the sun, I spent a lot of time on the beach. When I arrived in Russia, I saw how tanned I was compared to the Russians.
In the future I am going to visit India again. India is a friendly country.
India is a smile
There are many shortcomings in India. You may not like much. But if you join the rhythm of Indian life, only then you will understand how beautiful she is, so tropical. There are very friendly people here. Let them speak loudly, but they have a spark of a smile. By the way, people of India often smile. I remember this very much. Now when I represent India, I see people's smiles.
India, I'll come back to you
Around me is a palm tree. Nearby is the ocean, and its noise is heard more and more with every minute.
India is a twofold sense, where memories and life events are superimposed on one another and make one doubt what was, and what actually never was.
India is a car with open doors, or a crowded train. India - These are ripe mandarins, coconuts, bananas. There are many cows in India.
