Madhubani Paintings
Madhubani paintings originated in a small village, known as Maithili, in Bihar state of India. There are three main styles in Madhubani art-the Bharni style, Kachni style and tattoo style. The themes and motifs of Madhubani art are drawn from a palette of mythical figures, gods and goddesses, ritual activity and very importantly, local flora and fauna.
Mythology Paintings
In Hinduism, there are hundreds of gods and goddess. The themes of Madhubani paintings are primarily religious and mythological, with a focus on Hindu gods and goddesses, scenes from epic scriptures like the Ramayana and Mahabharat, and stories of devotion and love.
