Looking for Painting, Drawing & Art materials? You can be helped! Suri Sales in Railway Road is the place to go. Here you will find a huge variety of papers, drawing pads, notebooks, framed canvases and boards, pencils, brushes, gouache and water colours, even an artist's easel!
Mr. Amit Suri has been running this family business for several decades and while there are other stationery shops in Rishikesh, he has a special focus on arts and drawing material.
Rishikesh and the Himalayas certainly offer a lot of inspiration and "visual food" for sketches and paintings.
In fact, one of the most interesting and prolific of 20th century painters and writers, who travelled the epic Himalayas all the way up to Tibet, is the Russian Nicholas Roerich (1874 - 1947). He was a daring pioneer, a mystic, poet, thinker and intuitive.
Few know that he had a home in Kullu, India. India had indeed a special place in his heart. And to India he looked for the spiritual regeneration of the world. Hence his home and retreat in the land of the Rishis. His great countrywoman and spiritual mentor, Madame Blavatsky (the controversial Russian occultist, philosopher, and author) introduced him to India and to Indian wisdom.
Even if you are not into art, check this book: "Himalayas—Abode of Light" by Nicholas Roerich
Now, apart from artists' supplies, the Suri Sales Store has also school and office stationery, diaries and calendars, notebooks, folders, toys and general stationery items. What's missing can be ordered.
