Aja Nachle - Re-Creation


Hello People..!!!

Here I am with "Aja Nachle" - Re-Creation
Mount : Canvas Frame
Size : 16" x 20"
Medium : Acrylics

This is a very famous pose of the song "O Re Piya" of the movie, which involves so many emotions that you can see in the image below (I have not put any in my painting). But my main focus was the dress, its flow on Canvas.


I have tried to re-create the same image, by adding a texture technique in the dress. That made it so live and feel the way its moving in the real image.


A new attempt of leaning something new everyday helps me to create something new. You can see it with detail in the image below.


This was a new and good learning experience of mine.
I'll be back with something new next time.

Be Safe & Think Creative..!!

Warli Art - The Tribal Art of India



Hello People..!!!
Here I am with something new, "Warli Art - The Tribal Art of India".

Worlies are the largest tribe in Maharastra, India. They have their own beliefs, life, customs and traditions, which is a part of Composite Hindu culture. The word "Warli" is derived from "Warla", which means " piece of land or field". Traditionally printed by Woman on mud walls, Warli paintings are vivid expression of daily and social events. They are an example of diversity in Indian Art. They also tell us about their life and communication in those days.

Worli paintings are very different from other folk and tribal paintings in India. The Worli art form is similar to to the pre-historic cave paintings in its execution and they use a very basic graphic vocabulary. These paintings made on austere mud base using one colour, White, with occasional dots in red or yellow. The white pigment is the mixture of "Rice Paste" and water with Gum as a binding agent. Traditionally, when painting the mud walls, Warlies use a bamboo stick chewed at the end, to make it work like a paintbrush.

This was my first attempt in Worli art, and some basic information to share about Warli Art. For more information you can go to the link
