HAND PAINTING

Warli painting uses geometric designs such as triangle, circle, dots, squares and lines to depict the human figure, house and daily work like hunting, dancing, sowing, harvesting, etc. Marriage is the regular theme of the Warli paintings. The marriage theme Palghat, the marriage god in which one can find a horse, the bride and the groom. Man and Women dancing in circles (tribe tarpa dance), during the various celebrations, is another theme of Warli paintings. The unique aspect of the paintings is that Warli does not depict any mythological characters or images of god or goddess but depicts social life. Now, most of the artists use watercolors on handmade paper or canvas bUT maintain the traditional values, style and themes of painting.
