Madhubani means Forest of Honey. It is a district in the northern Indian state of Bihar. It’s traditionally practiced by Hindu women, who paint the walls and floors of their houses before major festivals or family celebrations and features a complex border design.
Tutor Komal Madar guides you through the process of creating a traditional Madhubani painting step by step. During the process she explains the inspiration and meaning associated with the images and patterns used in these artworks. Komal also gives you a bespoke pattern-training sheet to help you make your own beautiful masterpiece.
Komal has designed the Madhubani Art: Forest of Honey Workshop as a way to bring people together in a creative environment. She demonstrates how creating art in a mindful way will result in you feeling a sense of increased wellbeing.
