The different "art schools" are usually represented at each gallery but to make sure you get to see what you want I would suggest you use an experienced driver. EG our driver Putu Putra took me on several day trips to various villages and galleries in search of our dream painting! As he lives in the Ubud area he knows all the best places. If you are doing a trip up that way you might liketo go White Water Rafting which he also gets good discounts for! Make sure you tell him what you want to see as he can take you to the exact place then! His mobile in Bali is 081 2366 5584 or email pututour@yahoo.com. By the way Putu will also help you to bargai for anything you are interested in! Your artist friend might also be intersted in seeing the Egg Painting village - I was amazed at this process! I kept thinking they must use some screening but no! It is all carefully hand painted!
