In this lesson,children learnt how to create our own Pattachitra painting. First, let’s explore the borders used in these paintings. Pattachitra artists love to frame their pictures with detailed borders. These borders aren’t just decorations; they tell stories and add balance to the artwork.
Next, in the lesson we talked about the forms. Pattachitra paintings often show scenes from mythological tales, with people, animals, and nature. The figures in Pattachitra are drawn in a very unique way, with elongated eyes and detailed costumes.
Finally, we’ll use natural colors just like traditional Pattachitra artists do. They use colors made from flowers, leaves, and minerals, which give the paintings a special glow.
