"Solo traveler"....by artist Manisha Vedpathak

My new painting is complete and titled "Solo traveler".
This is a part of Reflection series but at the same time I have painted this for an exhibition on the occasion of Women's day.
Knowledge fuels empowerment - and there is no better way to learn than through travel.
One of the most liberating ways for Her to empower herself is by embracing solo travel. Travel feeds her curiosity, thirst for wanderlust and appetite for adventure.There was time when safety concerns prevented Her from taking solo journeys. But in the era of Women Empowerment, She is making 80% of all travel decisions - definitely a liberating statistic. She is more independent than she has ever realized. She learns about architecture, tastes weird delicacies and embraces new culture.  Being alone gives Her time to reflect on everything that is happening around Her.She has learned to see the world in a different perspective, conquer Her fears and also learned new skills. With all that exercised self confidence, awareness and connection to Her own gut instincts came the feeling that she can conquer anything. There is a distinct feeling of freedom that comes with solo travel.
My painting is a reflection of this empowering experience.
