Charles, I am sending a link to a photo of my friend, artist Ramesh Thorat. I had photographed him against the backdrop of one of his paintings. He lives in Mumbai so he is definitely more than an hour's drive away :-) He is one of the most sincere and committed artists that I know of. http://farm1.static.flickr.com/163/364639958_9146ea4323.jpg?v=0
My former colleague Swaroop Biswas is now a full time artist. Also Mumbai-based.
His blog features his art: http://www.swaroopbiswas.blogspot.com/
