Some years ago , I was with my parents . Our house located near artists village .. I have been much attracted by the atmosphere , houses , architectures , statues of that village . It looks like an another world . In the midst of the village there was a small Art Gallery , where all of the Artist's paintings , sculptures kept for the visitors . It was a free exhibition run out whole of the year . Anyone can visit , see buy whatever they wish . The price tags linked with all paintings and sculptures. Mostly Foreigners come here frequently .The timings was 10 AM to 7PM . It was a pleasant place with lot of trees , artist made houses . I liked that all and go there whenever I wish . Each creations revealed artist's imagination . Whenever My friends or cousin brothers come to our house , I took them to this beautiful place and watch . They too will get admired of this . Once with my friend we have knocked the door of an artist house and talked to him . He shown his paintings . We had learned something about paintings , modern art , brushes , cloth like that . Near the entrance of the village there was Tea shop which was made of beautiful hut . Hot & Yummy Ginger Tea , Samosas , Biscuits sold out there . Whenever I think of those times was recorded in my mind and runs like watching a movie or a video shot , above my head ! ! ! Come , Share your plesant unforgettable memory here ! ! !

It is wonderful to hear about such a gallery. I can imagine that it would have been a nice place to visit and enjoy. Did you ever buy any painting(s) from that Art Gallery. I would like to know the place of name and the art gallery so that if opportunity arises, I could also visit the place.

There is also an interesting village not far from me with painters and librarians selling old books. You were lucky to live near such a village ! You had access for free to a living modern art museum, and artists are very interesting people to meet.
