Thanks to the trend of “ethnic-sisation” of hotel interiors and celeb homes, this art-form has seen a handsome revival. The artisans have also started to adapt with the changing times and have adapted their art to make small panels, clock dials, key hangers, photoframes, nameplates etc.

This art form is a test of paience and nimbleness, as something as mundane as mud is used to make outlines of various shapes and figures. Finally small mirrors of different shapes and sizes are embedded in the mud and then the entire painting is painted in eath colours. he result is something really unique and eye catching.

These handcrafted paintings really look beautiful and give off positive vibes. Try getting one for your home, and liven up a wall or entrance or the puja room.
