Had written about the adventurers after my trip to Honnemaradu… recently visited Swami and he did have some really promising sounding courses for eco-tourism. I was enquiring for my brother-in-law. Will post more substantial info soon, but for now here are some tribal paintings that I’d been talking about earlier… These are just some old samples done at their office/home just to give an idea… (the photos aren’t the best quality as they’re taken from a mobile phone camera)
If you’d like such paintings done for your home or office, please contact the Adventurers at honnemardu (at) satyam.net.in or Ph:91-80-23305508 or 91-80-23409712
This one is actually a decoration made of battha (wheat chaff) to put at the doorstep of a house:

S.L.N. Swamy (India 1996) has established an environmental education program that is giving rise to a population of urban Indians committed to conserving the endangered rainforests. At the same time, he has created economic incentives for the forest’s tribal inhabitants to preserve their ecological heritage.
