A question a little out of 'left field', but has anyone come across a retail (or private) art studio specialising (or simply carrying) Camino related oil or water colour paintings? I've had no problems sourcing various prints worthy of framing; however, haven't come across a good artist depiction of the pilgrimage walk....yet.

Has anyone had any luck in this respect? I did a bit of internet searching, but nothing of note.

Appreciate responses which might head my way! Cheers.

When I'm finished my Camino, I want to commission this Etsy shop for one of their watercolour Camino portraits. :) They paint a custom picture of you based on a photo you send them, while wearing your equipment. There's a variety of styles on their shop of how the portrait can end up looking like (background/no background, Cathedral/no Cathedral, etc). I think they're very pretty!

Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
The owner of this albergue several kilometers beyond Sarria is a wonderful artist, an oil painter. She had paintings on display in the mill building when we were there in 2015. The albergue is closed seasonally so she can reclaim the kitchen and lounge for her own use. She should have time now to respond to queries.

You can buy Camino photos and paintings online ... use an editing program to alter photos to water colour (mine works well).
Try these -

Thank you Pilgrim2022. Had a quick look at his web site...and certainly looking interesting. Definitely down for a visit when next in Santiago. Appreciate the recommendation.
 
The is (was) a forum member called Weiho from whom I bought a watercolour several years back. His work is accomplished and very evocative of the camino experience. Maybe approach him via a private message to see if he is still active.
