Rangoli: A simple embroidery design with stone work
Created by deepa ram on 2009-03-16,

This simple embroidery is done with silver and copper decorative thread. Stitch used is filling stitch. Can also be done in machine easily, or ordered to be done from professional artists. Decorate with tilak shaped stone glued or can stitch them, there will be holes for it on the stone. Follow design pattern same as for painting on sarees.

Rangoli: Silk moth
Created by SuriK on 2009-03-16,

We learned about silk moths in our class. The silk moths started out as tiny brown eggs. After a few days, little caterpillars came out. These caterpillars feed on leaves. Our teacher had placed the caterpillars in a cardboard box with lots of mulberry leaves. In the next few days, they ate and got bigger. They stopped moving around and built a cocoon around themselves. Inside the cocoon, their skin started to grow and change. My teacher put each cocoon in a separate paper cup and gave each of us one to take home.

I kept my cup up on the mantle in our home. After a few days, when I was reading a book next to the mantle, I heard a faint fluttering sound. At first, I didn't know where the sound came from. But then, I noticed that it was coming from the mantle place. What a surprise, there was a white colored moth in my paper cup, next to the broken cocoon!
The silk moths don't eat anything and they are not able to fly. They only live for a few days. It was hard to see my dead moth after a few days.

Rangoli: My first color drawing on Computer

My first color drawing on the computer in 1992.
It took some time to draw a girl dancing, but once one image was ready, it was easy to just flip the second copy.

Rangoli: My first Mandala on Computer

Here is my first drawing of a Mandala using a software package in one of my Graphic design courses back in 1992 (California).

Rangoli: My first drawing on MS Paint
Created by judelined on 2009-03-16,

The day I got a new colour monitor (1999) I was tempted to draw and colour something so I used MS Paint and drew this cartoon of Mr & Mrs Mouse having dinner at a restaurant... I was so happy with the outcome and I'm glad that i was able to copy and preserve it... now I can share it with my ikolam friends too....

Again thanks to Lata for this wonderful website....

This is my favorite kolam. To make it look more attractive, use only contrast colours.
