I started this to make a geometrical design , but suddendly some chittukuruvies came and sat on the kolam. so changed the design itself. Looks like Amma kuruvies shoting at the kutties "Ennaa? summer holidays aanaa kulikkaama, saappidaama marathu mele aattam pottaa eppadi? Kizhe vaanga"
My wet Maavu kolam Bride came putting Haldhi paste and I decorated her with red sindhoor and green saree.( as Lakshmi says I am an LKG beautician). How is she looking now?
In Bangalore Sampangi flower known as Sampige is very famous. In malleswaram Banglore A road is called Sampige road because it has so many sampige trees on its side. For Ikolam I wanted to plant that flower. Its smell is amazing. Though the color is orangish yellow I like it for its smell. A few butterflies also to add charm to this
Lata, my neighbour who is very good in drawing and art works, started putting rangolis. when I saw this in front of her house, I told her about our garden and she was too happy to send this entry. Her name is Anushree. Since the flowers and the butterfly were cute I thought of sending it. You can decide whether to add in our garden or putit in the normal kolam place.
After the Bangaluru Meet I was tempted to put kolam using finger tip.( Hence design also has hands with fingers) when I drew the kolam my neighbour lady who is very good in drawing and wanted to learn kolam/rangoli making said she will put the colors.So I just told her to fill the gape inbetween the 2 lines and this is the final outcome.She was so thrilled . I took the photo immediately for u all to enjoy.How children enjoyed u can see in my blog.
On the eve of Vishukani, I put this kolam in the midnight in between the breaks of IPL match.
In flats that is the trafficless time to put kolams.The kavi red liquid made out of liquid food color was very thin , hence not comeout properly. Just uploading for its color.
All these rangolis are made by my Maid Anita, who is a helper in looking after my grandson. She is very much interested in kolams and helps me in coloring. All these designs, Evening Raagas are her own and done/colored by her . To encourage her I am uploading this. your comments please.
