The Warli art of Maharashtra is known for its typical stick-figure style of painting. This is one of the more difficult styles of painting. The Warli art in any form, be it on fabrics or canvases or even on pottery, is much in demand worldwide.
The product that is shown here depicts the tribal life of Maharashtra. The canvas is divided into many little parts, each part portraying one of the aspects of tribal life. In this particular painting, you can get to see meadows, palm trees, animals of the region like deer and horses, small thatched huts, people carrying on with routine village life and tribal people dancing to a tribal rhythm.
The most beautiful aspect about Warli paintings is that motion is actually created with these static figurines, drawn so skillfully within the limited space available to the artist.
