Madhubani painting primarily depicts mythological themes, nature and scenes from daily life. Artists use natural pigments and dyes to create stunning artworks on walls, floors and handmade paper. This form of painting is known for its bold lines, geometric patterns and bright colours.
The art form uses natural materials such as flower extracts and coal to create the colours used. Interestingly, the flowers used aren’t plucked from plants; they are either gifted to the artists or the artists use flowers that have been shed by the plant.
Here’s how you can make your own canvas Madhubani painting at home.
