The term ‘folk paintings’ encompasses the art in Indian villages whereby people indulge in the art without any proper training. Indian folk art carries a unique history and individuality in itself. These are living traditions, intrinsically linked with the regional historic-cultural setting from which they arise. The folk paintings are produced in variety of styles and themes. Phad, Warli, Madhubani, Patachitra, Gond, Kalamkari, Pichwai, and Kalighat are some of the famous folk art paintings in the country. My work focuses mainly on two folk arts- Madhubani from Bihar State and Warli from Maharashtra state of India.
