Phoren returned artist


Its been a while since we have heard from Stefan Eicher. Because its been a while since he was around in our beloved country of Bharat.

After a number of weeks of trying his mobile - the phone finally started ringing again this afternoon. Stefan and pariwar are back from their US jaunt. Safe and sound. Hale and pretty hearty.

Stefan, Neeru and their two bachhe Ashish and Anjali have just spent 6 weeks in the US, visiting old friends, making new ones, participating in an art camp, sharing in churches that are interested in the arts, and finally being speakers at our old college - the venerable and reinventing Taylor University.

I talked to a tired Stefan (and it was a tired Andi who talked on this side of the phone - I have to get to bed earlier) and got a glimpse of a very packed and very blessed time. He is just about to plunge into another Art week of the Creative Conscience group that meets in Delhi each year to do art with a purpose.

If you did not get to Orlando, Florida to see what Stefan did with the Limner Society - a week of art with old and new friends called 'the Art of Enduring' which ended with a gallery exhibition - you can still go virtually (like I did) to the photo gallery at the Limner's blog site: here! Happy viewing!
