Here is a picture of the
Warli wall hanging I have had for seven years now, since the time we bought our first house in Chennai
Here is a
Tulika book -
Dancing on Walls (by
Shamin Padamsee of
Bondapalli fame currently and illustrations by
Uma Krishnaswamy !!) that we enjoyed and gifted around with illustrations in the
Warli style. I recollect
Anush immediately
associated the book with the wall hanging!
And the above is our most recent work - activity from ToyKraft- the kit includes some paint, a brush and 3 terracotta items- 2 cups and a plate. The best thing is an interesting booklet on the art form. Very engaging and satisfying for any parent- child duo to undertake.
Anush did the background entirely.
I did the figure outlines.
She painted them in.
And both had a lot of fun!
