Art by Lalima Srivastava
Folk Art of India
The term ‘folk paintings’ encompasses the art which people make without any proper training. Indian folk art carries a unique history and individuality in itself. These art forms are living traditions. They are fundamentally linked with the regions historical and 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 styles. My work focuses mainly on two folk arts: Madhubani and Warli.
