Wanted to draw some rangoli, but Sahana wanted it this way.With her able help in putting the scene, preparations colour poder and final touch by my daughter I could complete it only today.
( when about to finish my 5 year old grandson, Sashank showed his appreciation by putting his hand on it, so corrections took some more time and finally it is for u to enjoy and Comment)
Some of the well known temples in India initiate a procession with the devotees and the temple chariot also called the rath in the festival season.
Idols of gods are placed in large chariots or raths which are drawn by the pilgrims. The chariots are approximately 45 feet high and have six wheels. Each year, the rath yatra (procession) draws huge number of devotees from all over the country.

Maattu Pongal is a harvest festival honoring bulls and cows. The farmer cultivating his land depends on bulls, timely rain and the Sun. On this day, the cows and bulls are bathed, adorned with flower garlands and their horns are painted colorfully. Tinkling bells are tied around their neck and they are fed special dishes prepared that day. Bull fights called 'Jallikattu' are also arranged at some places, where young men have to take off the money pouches tied to the horns of ferocious bulls single handed. Another game called "Manji Virattu" is also arranged this day which is basically a cattle race where young men chase ferociously running bulls!

Dot kolam but dots are not shown which are filled with colours. Happy pongal to all of you.
This is one of my favourite kolam. I have drawn this twice, one during the Margazhi month and next during my Thalai pongal. It has got a 3D effect. This kolam bagged me first prize in our colony kolam competition.
