A freehand kolam done for last Deepavalli season. I wanted to draw a freehand kolam with colours. I didn’t have the patience of colouring into detail, so sprinkled colours on the base and started to draw the design in white rangoli powder. And lotus came into rescue to start the design. The bottom most lotus was the start of the design and enclosed with a minaret just like a design in embroidery. As the lotus became the centre design, extended with another lotus on the top and kept the flower as the theme of the kolam. Without much care to colour combination, I sprinkled colours and draw extra extensions around. I liked the design and It looked like chandelier to me and friends did mention about it too 😀
