Rainy season started, so in my rangoli also color waves are dancing. Instead of water-mel-rangli I have drawn this to welcome rainy season.

Dear All!
This is one of the more attractive kolams I clicked at the mylapore festival kolam contest of Jan 2008. As the picture says it is 17* 17 dots. I appreciate the visual texture the artist has managed to create with lines and the meticulous geometrical precision in execution. A chic and suave kolam that is indeed a treat to the perceiving eye!

Another puzzle rangoli with dot count 13-7 in between dots. Here 2 different type of segment/designs are repeated in all the directions to form this rangoli. Loo.....ng ago in one Tamil magazine( I think Kumudham) one Male Kolam Expert used to give the dots for the kolam and provide with one segment of the puzzle and we have to fill the same in our own way to create a kolam and send.

Here is a hexagonal chikku kOlam assembled with a 4x2 sona drawing. The overall symmetry is 32 (a vertical three-fold axis giving rise to 120 deg rotations and three intersecting two-fold axes at 60 deg). Note the following characteristics: (1) There are four independent coloured strings. (2) The up and down motion is present for all the strings.
