My entry for by for is inspired from Warli art of Gujarat- Maharashtra, India. This art form is very simple in comparison to the vibrant paintings from Madhubani. The only color used in creating warli painting is white. Traditionally, warli people lived in Mud houses and to adorn the plain walls, they cover them with murals depicting their daily life and their relationships with nature and god. ” Paint” was made from ground rice flour and traditionally the women created the murals for the home. This combination of mud and flour produces a vivid single color of white on reddish-brown and has resulted in rich pictures of various themes and oods. These paintings tell stories and make a record of their simple lifestyle. My art is a creative take of this beautiful artform.
