Indian Traditional Folk Art Painting

India has always been known for its indian folk art painting and crafts, which represent its cultural and traditional vibrancy. The 35 states and union territories that make up the United States each have their own distinct cultural and traditional cultures, which are reflected in the art they create. Every Indian region has its own distinct style and pattern of the dress.

Madhubani Paintings 

Madhubani painting is one of India's most well-known art forms also called Madhubani folk art. It is known as Mithila or Madhubani background since it is performed in the Mithila area of Bihar and Nepal. These paintings are known for depicting ceremonial material for specific occasions, such as festivals, religious ceremonies, and so on, and are often distinguished by complex geometrical patterns. 

Tanjore Painting (Tanjore Painting Classes)

Tanjore Paintings Is A Classical South Indian Art Developed In The Late 16th Century In Thanjavur Also Known As Tanjore In Tamil Nadu South Indian State. This type of art evolved in the city of Thanjavur (Tanjore), about 300 kilometers from Chennai, Tamilnadu, during the mighty Chola empire's reign of cultural evolution. 

Thanjavur Art in the Making

The preliminary sketch of the images on the surface of the canvas is the first of the many steps involved in the creation of a Tanjore Painting Classes. The painting's canvas is made up of a wooden frame on which the fabric is tightly pasted. The second step involves combining zinc oxide or chalk powder with a water-soluble adhesive and applying it to the base. 

Patachitra 

These paintings, which are cloth-based scroll paintings from Odisha and West Bengal, depict epics, Gods, and Goddesses with sharp, angular bold lines.

Since there was no known distinction between an artist and a sculptor back then, it dates from the fifth century in religious hubs like Puri and Konark, around the same time that sculpturing began.

Phad Art

Phad is a religious type of scroll painting that originated in Rajasthan and depicts folk deities Pabuji or Devnarayan. The phad is the 30- or 15-foot-long canvas or fabric on which it is drawn. These paintings are characterised by vegetable colours and a running tale of deities' lives and heroic deeds.

Gond Art

Gond art is a style of painting derived from folk paintings of India and tribal art that is practised by one of India's largest tribes, the Gond, which are primarily found in Madhya Pradesh but also in Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, Chhatisgarh, and Odisha.

Warli Art 

This is easily one of India's oldest art forms, having been produced by the Warli tribes of the Western Ghat in 2500 BCE. It primarily consists of the use of circles, triangles, and squares to create a variety of shapes and represent everyday activities such as fishing, hunting, festivals, dance, and so on. 

Kerala Murals 

Any piece of artwork painted or applied directly on a wall, roof, or another permanent surface is referred to as a mural. The architectural elements of the given space are harmoniously integrated into the frame, which is a distinguishing feature of mural painting.
