Warli Painting

Warli painting is a traditional Indian art form originating from the Warli tribe in Maharashtra. It is characterized by its use of simple geometric shapes like circles, triangles, and squares to depict scenes of everyday life, nature, and community activities. Typically painted with white rice paste on mud walls or walls decorated with red ochre, these artworks emphasize storytelling and cultural traditions. Warli art is known for its minimalistic yet expressive style, capturing the harmony between humans, animals, and the environment in a rhythmic, symbolic manner.
