Story Behind the art:
Update (May, 2019)
It's been 14 years now since I first began working with you. Everyone liked my painting and encouraged me to pursue it professionally. That is when I happened to learn about the great opportunity you provided for upcoming artists and artisans across the globe. This was a good chance for me to show my talent to the world. When I first met you, I had just started painting. Over the years, I have grown as an artist.
In Bihar, this art is a ritual that is done on the walls during every wedding. Initially, I used to just fill colors on the designs. Later on, I learned the art by myself. I execute my paintings by using natural colors on handmade paper. Brushes, sharpened reeds, and pen nibs are used to draw the designs and figuration. I also love to do contemporary paintings, while maintaining elements of Madhubani style.
Along with Madhubani painting, I have learned the beautiful 'Gond' painting style too. I use to admire Gond paintings during my visits to folk art fairs. The style, the bright colors and the intricate patterning through dots, lines and curves inspired me to paint and learn more and more about this art form. It has always been my dream to learn more about the different art forms of India and paint them. I derive great pleasure and happiness in learning and painting the many forms of traditional arts. Earlier, I was concentrating only on Madhubani paintings. But now, with the passing of time, I have created journals, albums, photo frames, greeting cards and many more art expressions with my paintings on them.
At present, I manage the largest Facebook group on Mithila paintings, with 19,000 members from around the world and from where Mithila painting originated. I keep getting queries from new learners, and others who want to improve their work and explore new opportunities. I have also conducted Madhubani painting workshops in Bangalore and Delhi for individuals, schools, groups and also at some of the leading technology companies and leading institutions like the Indian Institute of Science in Bangalore. In collaboration with an NGO in Bangalore, I am teaching young aspiring artists the traditional ways of Madhubani art and also how to execute Madhubani painting on wooden trays, journals, photo frames, and other items. They are crafted by the artisans of the NGO, to keep the tradition alive. I have also authored a book titled, Documentation on Madhubani painting. This was commissioned by MSME, Hyderabad.
The handmade touch of artisan skill creates variations in color, size and design. If buying two of the same item, slight differences should be expected. Note: Color discrepancies may occur between this product and your computer screen.
