Circle of Beauty – Concentric Intricacy” is a captivating Madhubani painting

Origin: Madhubani art, also known as Mithila painting, hails from the Mithila region of Bihar, India, and Nepal. It has a rich cultural heritage and is named after the Madhubani district in Bihar.
Tradition: Traditionally, Madhubani paintings were created by women in various communities within the Mithila region. The art was passed down through generations, mainly by women. Initially practiced on freshly plastered mud walls and floors of huts, it has now expanded to other surfaces like cloth, handmade paper, and canvas.
Technique: Artists use a variety of mediums, including their own fingers, twigs, brushes, nib-pens, and matchsticks. The paint is made from natural dyes and pigments. 
Geometrical patterns are a hallmark of Madhubani art, and the themes often revolve around Hindu deities like Krishna, Ram, Shiva, Durga, Lakshmi, and Saraswati.
Ambika Devi: Ambika Devi specializes in “Line Work,” characterized by a mesmerizing dance of only two colors: red and black. Her intricate creations capture the essence of this ancient art form.
