The Tree of Life is an ancient mystical symbol which appear in many cultures from the Mayans to the Celts, Buddhism to Nordic mythology. In Madhubani art the bountiful tree is the focal point of the composition. It is usually surrounded by several birds and animals that reap the benefits.
During the workshop Komal will take you step by step in the art of Madhubani Painting. She will show you how to create complex border designs using a bespoke pattern-training sheet, and how to draw the repeat patterns traditionally used in Indian folk art. You will also be working with carefully selected resources for inspiration.
Komal will help guide you to find your flow through the process of painting whilst entering a relaxed state, and your journey through this beautiful art form from a sacred land.
At the end of the workshop you take home your own beautiful masterpiece.
