MUST DO IN UDAIPUR - MUST DO IN UDAIPUR I attended a miniature art class with Jeetu sir, starting from helping to find the venue, arranging class in short notice everything is appreciated .His teaching style is warm, encouraging, and utterly inspiring.He dint push us to finish in a certain time, he was so patient and answering all my doubts with patience and helped me create a beautiful art. Jeetu sir is a wonderful teacher, would recommend anyone who loves art to keep his classes as a must do experience in Udaipur and it will be an unforgettable experience for you .His passion for miniature art is infectious! He have sparked a new passion in me, and I'm forever grateful for that.

Amazing Art class! Best in Udaipur! - We found the art class through trip advisor because we were looking for a more hands on experience on our trip through India. And we were not disappointed! We contacted them via WhatsApp and received a super fast reply to show up the next day. First they show you the technique and then you paint your own painting. They share a lot of knowledge about the art and about their life as artists in general. At the end you have your own personal souvenir. Of course you can also purchase their art for a very reasonable price! It’s a family run business and one of the brothers also stays close to the bridge in udaipur. He already talked to us there but we didn’t know that he was going to be one of the teachers. So if you see him there, go to one of the classes. One class is about 2 hours. Bring some extra time to look through their work!

Cultural Masterclass with brothers at Pacific Art Udaipur - Pacific Art takes you back in time and immerses you in the rich, highly-detailed painting tradition of India. Brothers Naresh and Jeetu are highly knowledgeable ambassadors able to explain the history and technique of this art style. I stumbled upon this shop late at night the first time and they very patiently entertained dozens of questions from me as I looked around the shop and asked them about paintings that stood out to me. At the end of the night, I actually handed Jeetu an iPad and he drew an elephant on there with an Apple Pencil showcasing his command of the style despite the different medium. Their friendliness encouraged me to come back and take a painting class to experience firsthand how to paint in this style. The class was taught in the daytime, seated on a drawing board and involved outlining a peacock and using very thin tipped brushes to color it in. Though there was not a lot of individuality in learning this first drawing (mostly following instructions and coloring with the colors as directed), it did provide insight into how difficult these paintings are to create and the subtleties in the detailing of each of the master works. I also bought a number of paintings from them to take home and which were loved by the friends and family. Over my few days in Udaipur, I regularly came by the shop given their kindness and they even shared their lunch with me on a few occasions while regaling me in their family's history in art. Though the shop's purpose is to teach drawing and sell paintings, I felt I got to integrate with their community through my visits to their gallery, seeing how they worked, and sharing experiences and I would recommend everyone pay them a visit to get a taste of traditional Indian painting!

Udaipur highlight - My friend and I were walking through Udaipur and ran into one of the brothers by the lake. We chatted for a bit, him telling us about their nearby store. We were able to sit down and watch them paint, learning about where the paint comes from and the technique required. We never felt any pressure to buy though we did walk away very happy with 2 pieces.

A lovely insight into the skill of miniature painting. - A lovely experience with a great teacher. We were taught some basic skills which culminated in a painting of a peacock. The class lasted about 2 hours. Sitting on the floor using a low table was a bit uncomfortable, but it’s traditional so I went along with it. A great way to experience an ancient art that is passed down through the generations. Thankyou for a memorable experience.
