Topic: This is a type of Mural painting. Basically, a mural is any piece of artwork painted directly on a wall, ceiling or other large permanent surface.
The state of Kerala holds the second place in having the largest collection of archaeologically important mural sites, the first being Rajasthan. The mural tradition of Kerala evolved as a complement to her unique architectural style.
Your sketch is delightful! Kerala and Rajasthan

Is this piece done on a wall as well, Megha? Is this a male or female figure? (I ask because I know with cultural adornments that wrap the head, it can sometimes be hard to tell unless you live in the culture.) I love all the detail and would love to hear more of the history of this person!
ReplyDeleteThanks a ton Rosemary and Mary for your beautiful comment!
ReplyDeleteHey Priya, I am so glad that you liked my work. Stay in touch dear!
ReplyDeleteNo dear Sherry! This piece is not done on wall but on sketch paper. Just I liked the subject so I sketched it. I will color it also.
ReplyDeleteThe sketch is a male face. You said it right, it is really hard to tell man or woman.
Very beautiful! I am continually in awe of your artistic talent. I do hope you show it again once you have colored it!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great piece Megha, done in your beautiful style.
