PABLO AMARINGO
http://www.pabloamaringo.com
Pablo Amaringo was born in 1943 in Puerto Libertad, in the Peruvian Amazon region. He was 10 years old when he first took ayahuasca÷a visionary brew used in shamanism, made from the plants Banisteriopsis caapi (yagŽ) and Psychotria viridis (chacruna). A severe heartillness--and the magical treatment of this via ayahuasca--led Pablo toward the life of a shaman, and he eventually became a powerful curandero--learning the icaros, or healing songs that the ayahuasca brew taught him. However, in 1977, Pablo abandoned his vocation as a shaman, and he is now a painter and painting teacher at his Usko-Ayar school, where there is nocharge for the students to learn painting from Pablo. Pablo has painted and described numerous ayahuasca visions, some of which have appeared in his book Ayahuasca Visions: The Religious Iconography of a Peruvian Shaman. He is currently working on paintings of angels for a forthcoming book, as well as paintings that document the flora and fauna of Peru. Books and original art are available for purchase through this web page, and a gallery of recent paintings is also available for viewing.
