128 days: Rahul Mehta



Today I spent a lazy afternoon in Jaipur's Central Park, enjoying the warmth of the sun and the gentle breeze rustling through the leaves. As I sketched the scene around me, capturing the casual strolls of families and the occasional jogger, I was approached by a local artist, Rahul Mehta. Rahul, a sculptor by profession, was intrigued by my use of color and perspective in my sketches. He shared his journey as a sculptor and emphasized how the rich heritage of Jaipur influences his work, which often incorporates elements of Rajasthani folklore and architecture. Our conversation delved into the challenges and rewards of a life dedicated to art. Inspired by Rahul's passion and the cultural depth of his work, I felt a renewed sense of purpose in my own artistic endeavors. As the park slowly emptied and the hues of the sunset began to paint the sky, I reflected on how such serendipitous encounters are the essence of my travels - not just seeing new places, but connecting with the souls who bring them to life. Today wasn't just about capturing the landscape of Jaipur; it was about understanding the heart of its artistic community through Rahul's eyes.
