KERALA MURAL PAINTING- KATHAKALI

Hi everyone..

Today Iam going to share a Kerala Mural painting that I completed long before.. This is based on Kathakali.

Kathakali  is a stylized classical Indian Dance Drama noted for the attractive make-up of characters, elaborate costumes, detailed gestures and well-defined body movements presented in tune with the anchor playback music and complementary percussion.

MOTHER'S DAY SPECIAL- BLOCK PRINTED SARI

 
Dedicating this post to all the mom's who love sarees.HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY :)

These days painted fabrics are in fashion. For those who don’t know painting/drawing I will help you with an easy way out . It is called block printing…. You will get blocks from your nearest craft shop..The only thing you need is to choose a right design…

This project I did for my mom who loves sari more than anything in this world…  She loves doing paintings, stiching etc.... Actually she is the one who inspired me into this world of crafts...

Lets see how to do this block printing…You just need a cloth, fabric paints, design block , a painting brush and the material to do the printing.. Here I have taken my mom’s sari..

Place some news paper on a table and spread ur cloth over it.

Pour the color into a flat plate and dip the design block in this color. Apply it evenly on the block with the help of a brush… Now slowly press the block on the cloth. Repeat this process to make continuous patterns...

My mom was soo happy after seeing the final product.... :)

Hope you all will try this.. Once again Happy Mother's Day :)

KERALA MURAL PAINTING

You might be thinking where I had vanished these days…I had gone to my native place to attend a family function, When I came back I was shocked by seeing my blog hits… It has increased a good number than what I had expected…Thank you so much for the love and support that you are giving me…

On this Occasion of Ganesha Chaturthi I thought of uploading one of my paintings which I completed recently … This typical type of painting is called Kerala mural painting. These are drawn on the walls of ancient temples and churches in south India… But now a day’s we use canvas/clothes to make them.

Only 5 colors are used for doing this painting, white, yellow, red, black and green.. Now a days blue color is also being used…

You should follow some rules before you start the painting. Since these are usually paintings of Gods , our body and mind should be pure and clean, Should pray before starting the painting everyday....Even for painting the eye there are some special days..This type of paintings are very time consuming but you will cherish the output..

MADHUBANI PAINTING

Madhubani painting  or Mithila painting is a style of Indian painting practiced in the Mithila region of Bihar state… I came to know about this painting from Dilli haat , New delhi , where people from various places in India display there traditional crafts…  I really loved those paintings. Out of curiosity I got trained in Madhubani paintings for almost three months…

These paintings are inspired from  birds ,animals, nature and Indian Gods.

They are done in cream color hand made sheets .  Natural colors are used for this type of paintings… But since it is not available I used acrylic paints… The main aspect of these paintings are that the designs are outlined with black lining and even the interior of the deigns are kind of hatched…

I also did some paintings inspired from Madhubani

I love trees 

My first painting...
