I was coming to the Hobby Place for pottery classes during my stay in Mysore and I totally fell in love with it! Each of my friends who visited the place loves it as well! My dearest teacher mrs Manju is super kind and cheerful person, she made me enjoy every moment there and create my first clay pots❤️ She puts her heart to her job which is totally her passion! Cannot wait to come back there.

Mysuru style of painting is unique to the old Mysuru kingdom; it probably originated in the 18th century. On the occasion of its Silver Jubilee, Ramsons Kala Pratishtana has established a museum, in the name of its founder, to house the Trust's sizeable collection of Mysuru style paintings. This museum is a tribute to the Wadiyars and the bygone artists who created them.

This one gem of a place for art, culture and history enthusiasts! Housed in a 3 floor home very close to Mysuru zoo- every inch of wall here is filled with Mysuru style paintings. If you're lucky you'll have RG Singh and Dharmendra to help you look around and they do a fantastic job of taking you back into history with the stories behind the paintings, the artist's perspective and some unique and interesting facts associated with it. A must visit for people across different ages in Mysuru. Definitely in the top things to do in Mysuru for tourists.

Jaganmohan palace has a mural, using natural dyes depicts earliest ‘Dushara’ festival. Ground floor has black and white photographs of Wadiyar clan, French musical calendar clock of 19th century and Wooden plaques describing Hindu mythology which are worth admiring. The collection includes paintings, musical instruments, rare period photographs, clocks, weapons, marble busts, furniture, ancient coins and other artifacts of great value and interest. Currently it houses an art gallery and contains galleries dedicated to Raja Ravi Verma, Roerich’s, Chugtai indicates the patronage of art and artists by Wadiyar’s. ‘Lady in Moonlight’ is an unusual masterpiece by Raja Ravi Verma. A galaxy of lady musician with musical instruments by RR Verma caught my eye. Most impressive is a painting entitled ‘Glow of Hope’ by Haldenkar outlines a light shade casted figure of a serene lady holding a lighted lamp in her hands with darken background, symbolizing hope against evil darkness. Chugtai’s paintings has immaculate resemblance of Mughal artistry. Look for Nightangle, Hasarat, and Lady with a parrot. A Self-Portrait of Rembrandt took me by surprise. Shantiniketan School is well represented by Tagore family members. Watch out for Running in Terror [Nandalal Bose]. Many other paintings are of great importance and represent the art and culture of India. Japanese section birds painting on silk, miniature painting of Mughal and Rajasthani styles are also there.
