STONE ART

 STONE ART
Art is a way of beautifying the look of a dull object & give it a beautiful perception. I tried to apply and personify this thought of painting on a sea beach stone.

Sea Beach stones can be a good paper weight because of its smooth texture, but people who are fond of decorating their house with beautiful artifacts, will not like to keep a dull looking beach stone in their house. This problem can be solved by painting on the smooth surface of a beach stone.

 Hence, it can be a wonderful idea to do some unique as well as interesting artwork on a sea beach stone & transform it into a wonderful designer paper weight which may enhance the interior decoration of your house.

In this art of mine, I have tried to glorify a piece of plain stone with folk art skills to reflect my imagination.

 I will be very eager to know your views regarding my artwork.

Image
Today, while  I was just browsing images of various Indian folk art paintings ,one thing pop up in my mind that as a viewer we always focus on the main subject of a folk art.But other than the main subject ,painting also has another part i.e. it’s border. Border of an Indian Folk art painting is also as beautiful as the subject of painting.Moreover, it gives a complete look to it.Diversity also flows in the patterns of border of all folk paintings . Here I have done a rough sketch in order  to show the difference between all Indian Folk art,through its  borders.

JAGANNATH

Image
12" x 12" art on canvas in acrylic & pen Description : The word JAGANNATH literally means “ Lord of the Universe” & is a deity worshiped in regional traditions of Hinduism in India. He is an incarnation of Lord Vishnu. His main temple named as JAGANNATH DHAM is located at holy city Puri (an age-old city in State of Odisha), in India. Every day many pilgrims visit this temple just to see one glance of Lord Jagannath's sacred idol made of sandalwood. If anybody visits Lord Jagannath's temple, one will see mural art on every wall & pillar. When artisans started doing this mural art on “patta” means canvas, then it became PATTACHITRA . So this way famous traditional art of Odisha i.e. Pattachitra evolved. This art form is known for its intricate details as well as mythological narratives and folktales inscribed in it. My painting is also a Pattachitra art, which depicts the holy face of Lord JAGANNATH.

DANCING FISHES

Image
Hi friends  .I have come up again with another version of fish art. This painting is another result of my love  towards madhubani painting & gond art.The patterns in border & background is based upon madhubani art.While the dancing fishes are designed as per gond art. I have been doing painting since childhood.But I started applying these folk art patterns  into my paintings very recently & which gave a new look to my art.These folk paintings are amazing .They don’t follow the grammar of fine art because folk artists are not trained in fine art.They follow their own style & create incredible paintings .They develop their style from their day to day life . Now let’s examine the patterns more precisely. The magic of gond art lies in beautiful patterns created with dots & lines.      In folk art , tails of fishes are also designed with intricate patterns. Hence ,this is my another trial to enhance the rich culture o...
