Faces of Nepal

“My work until now has been an instinctive response of admiration and deligth at the extraordinarily varied, fascinating and beautiful peoples of Nepal. The faces I draw and paint reflect age-old wisdom and knowledge, and survival skills which are today being taken for granted and overlooked. The people I have captured in pencil or in oils have much to offer in terms of their knowledge and understanding of the natural world and in the uniqueness and richness of their own culture. I would be proud if my work contributed in any way to a greater recognititon and respect for the rich and varied cultures my ‘faces’ represent. – Jan Salter”
