I have already seen this! this has happened before! but where? when?
My mind constantly played these memory games with me on my recent trip to the Himalyas.
Flowing stream through a beautiful valley overlooked by majestic snow covered mountains..I have been here before,I have been here at this very place.I have stared at these mountains , I stood in front of this particular tree ! I was overwhelmed by these thoughts and then like a flash it came.. the realization , that I have painted this all long before I even decided to take this trip.
It was as if my paintings have come alive.
These are some of the paintings I made a few months ago.I am amazed by striking similarities between my paintings and the landscapes I saw on my trip:
Painting 1: Totally fictitious Jungle scene
