This rangoli was made by a few participants of a rangoli competition, held in California a few years ago. It was held for a fund raising event, and actor Mr. Madhavan was the chief guest in it.
Please share your ideas/experiences of coloring rangolis with salt.
We celebrated Gowri-Ganesha on the sunday in our house.usauly Swarna gowri is celebrated one day prior to Ganesha festival.this year both festivals came same day.thought of sharing this photo with all of you.
i made this rangoli next to the puja mandap...next time i hope i can come up with the full version...:-)
i made this rangoli on the previous night of ganesh puja...i was up until 12 in the night...my elder daughter (i hav 2 year old twin girls) made sure i had company throughout...
My attempts at maa kolam continues as I tried one more maa kolam on Ganesha Chathurthi..
This is a stencil which I have and thought would download since Mohanaji was asking for a dancer kneeling in namaskaram pose but here the dancer is holding a lamp... Especially for you Mohanaji... hope you like it.. I used kaavi for this ... the picture is not too perfect ... will try it if I happen to find a darker background with white maavu batter...
Normally, straight lines are drawn when drawing paDikOlams. Suddenly it occured to me why not wavy lines? Here red and grey wavy lines have been used throughout. The outer border was drawn with curly brackets The svAstikAs were used to impart holiness (this is like devil taling about the bible).
