Another kolam from this year’s collection drawn at my mom’s place. Tops in my favourite list. Tempted to draw bigger kolams on the bright mud floor which made to search my mom’s kolam notebook and went ahead with this 21 dot kolam. This should be the maximum dot count kolam that I have ever tried. This kolam is very simple to draw as it has many small strands and easy loops. I did with a single rehearsal on the paper and proceeded with the fair copy on floor.
Drawing kolams on mudfloor is always enchanting and clearing the white colour is bit difficult…
I have added border to the kolam with swrils and blue colour. I felt satisfied with the outcome π
While browsing through the old folders in my hard drive, I saw the below kolam which was done last year at my mom’s home. The same kolam with different decorations done to beautify the kolam.
I feel the kolam dazzles on the mud floor rather than on the cement floor.
After drawing the above purple kolam on cement floor, I was waiting for the floor to get dried up… But before that moment arrived it was the entry of the rain.. Then at a lightning speed, I captured this kolam and that was the end of the episode π Hope you can see the start of the rain dance π
