of Evelyne Pouget

I began painting in 1992 after realizing there must have been a

reason why my teacher, Baba Muktananda, used to call me

“The Painter” – even though, until then, I had never picked up a

paint brush. My first painting was a portrait of him. It was then that

I realized I had a gift and that the rest of my life was going to be

the adventure of exploring that gift – which is what I am doing now,

focusing on portraiture (people and pets) and landscapes. I was born

in Paris, lived for a time in Rome, India, and New York City, and am

now dividing my time between Woodstock, NY and San Miguel.

Inspired by the natural beauty of the Hudson Valley and Mexico,

as well as the many extraordinary people I’ve met in my travels, my

painting embodies the three aspects of life that are most meaningful

to me: beauty, soul, and the quest for heartfelt connection. Most

recently, my work has been suffused with the spirit, sacredness, and

color of Mexico, my subjects being a mix of street vendors, elders,

and costumed dancers from various indigenous traditions.
