21. Some experimental art by Paromita

Poster colour applied with sponge on handmade paper. Caligraphic writing

 The greeting cards below are made on handmade paper, which was soaked in a strong decoction of tea to give the base the colouring. The flowers were made with ordinary crayons.




The above is made on synthetic cloth with fabric paints, specially meant for synthetic cloth. The method is wet on wet, (which is giving the batik like effect), after an outline is drawn with a golden liner.

20. Madhubani Paintings by Paromita

This style of painting is practiced in the Mithla region of Bihar. Natural dyes are used and applied by just about anything - fingers, twigs, matchsticks or even brushes and nibs. Madhubani paintings are characterised by bright geometric figures. Parmita has used different mediums but the style of painting is Madhubani.
