Madhubani Painting or Mithila Painting are traditionally done with fingers, twigs, brushes, nib-pens, and matchsticks, using natural dyes and pigments.
What about doing Madhubani Paintings with a twist? Instead of the use of traditional pigments and dyes, we will be using mixed media to create this famous form of paintings.
Join us in for a creative session of Mithila/Madhubani painting in mixed media. Participants will use acryclic colours, ink and metallic colours to make their piece of Madhubani Art.
