Bidai Celebration Warli Painting

Another try at Warli painting.

I had to make 3 similar Warli paintings (for a reason) pertaining to wedding celebration. I made these on purple coloured handmade paper with white paint. Yep, I like purple colour.
I had them framed after completing them.
Completed on 4th of May, 2014.

I did this Warli painting again, I had an order. This time I chose another colour combination. I used black on ochre coloured handmade paper.
Completed on 7th of October, 2015.

Peacock (Warli painting adaptation)

I started with an objective to recreate the peacock I drew in my first Warli painting (2013).
Have a look below.

 But instead drew another one. This is not the original form of Warli painting, but I incorporated the theme into this one.

Drawn on 30th May, 2016.
