Mood Board For Interior

I am a silent admirer of colours ...Like to go out for a walk, watching colours in all the things around me, nature,buildings,painting ,accessiories,interiors ,etc.,.Better to say ,not going out for walk ,it's going in ...in things. I always present my painting as a wall piece decor ,not to just showcase my paint ,show how the colors of my piece and the interior wall blend well together.This influenced me in creating mood boards.While browsing ,i saw a site for mood boards by olioboard,got hooked  and end up with this creations.hope you'll like it
            While checking updates from my bloglist,i came across some beautiful mood boards in cherishing spaces by Mrs.Vasudha...check her's too,you'll luv it.

Madhubani painting

Hi,
It's my comeback with Madhubani,a colourful traditional painting.I don't have much knowledge in this painting.I inspired by these painting, while surfing the net,decided to work on it ...Hope you all like it.
From Wiki,Madhubani painting or Mithila painting is a style of Indian painting, practiced in the Mithila region of Bihar state, India and the adjoining parts of Terai in Nepal. Painting is done with fingers, twigs, brushes, nib-pens, and matchsticks, using natural dyes and pigments, and are characterized by eye-catching geometrical patterns. There are paintings for each occasion and festival such as bith, marriage, holi, surya shasti, kali puja, Upanayanam (sacred thread ceremony), and durga puja.
