Dear friends...A very Happy Ganesh Chathurthi to you all. The pookolam decorations for Onam has also begun and this photo has the designs done by my friends Archana and Smitha. Your views please.
Hello friends....Happy Vinayagar Chathurthi to all...this freehand rangoli was done by me on this auspicious day
Here comes my version of rangoli on the door. I've tried one of Mr.Lakhichand Jain's Mandana design, on one of my closet door. I had painted a big portion of it maroon, last year, to make such designs, but it was used mostly by Surik for her drawings.
I've used my daughter's white paint, and a little bit of orange. This is my first attempt, and I used an earbud to draw this Ganesha. Next time, I would try with brushes in different sizes to get more control.
A little bit about Mandana, a Rajasthani rangoli:
This folk art makes use of red sand (geru) and chalk powder and is applied on floors and walls, especially on auspicious occasions and festivals.
