Warli Tribal Painting 5
Warli paintings are simple tribal paintings originating sometime in the 10th century with the people of Maharashtra.
They are created with a white powder made from ground white rice, and painted with twigs. The married women of the village painted them on the walls of mud houses, after first preparing the walls with a coat of cow dung, followed by a coat of red mud. They depict the social life of the village, and are similar to prehistoric cave paintings in that they are rudimentary stick-like figures and geometric designs, using dots and dashes to represent straight lines. They often depict elements of nature and social events such as a marriage or a hunt.
Warli paintings are still created today, though they have been modernized to include paper and cloth as a medium.Men have also started creating Warli paintings and it has become much commercialised;but the essence remains the same.
