I have a feeling that without sanghu and chakaram, i cant make a kolam !!!

This middle lamp kollam is just 5X5, The first kolam my mother taught me when i was 6 years old for my school project, with days and years it has evolved with imagination.

This kollam dedicated to my mom amma, who makes simple and small designs but elegant as her.

She would be surprised when she visits this website entirely dedicated to kolam lovers and women who create magic on doorsteps.

Thanks you all for such wonderful designs.

P.S - My future mother-in-law is also a kolam expert ( heard that she is called by her neighbours as Kola mammi), by this year when i will get married will get more snaps of her designs. This one is also my fiances fav.

Love,
Gowri Manohari Narayanan.

hridayakamalam - 2

I am demonstrating the method of drawing a simple hridayakamalam without dots.
The figure is self-explanatory. Comments for improvement are welcome.

All the best are yours, all the worst are mine
The beauty is yours, but the ugliness is mine
My talk is empty, my music is discordant
my song is thoughtless, my art is ordinary
my logic is twisted, my arguments are repetitive
I am at war with myself and I make new enemies
I long for beauty and peace
but my heart is ugly, unfit and stormy
It is certainly not a lotus
and it may not be even a heart

This is a designed mango with multi colour and this also my imaginary design and whenever I start drawing I don't know what I am going to draw but some design will come finally.

Hi All,

This kolam has been appreciated by my chinese neighbours.

They think I am maths professor. I told them, I am just a s/w eng, there are people who make more beautiful designs than this. Agree right :-), Seeing this forum I am really surprised !!!
