Artist Spotlight: Pablo Amaringo, Visionary Artist and Amazonian Shaman
Pablo Amaringo (1938-2009) stands as a luminary figure in the world of visionary art and shamanism, renowned for his exceptional artistic talent and profound spiritual insights derived from his deep connection with the Amazon rainforest.
