Yesterday I have shared Pichwai art with you and today would love to share GOND ART another Indian art. Although it's not from my recent work, but I am in love with this art form.
Gond art is a form of tribal art that is practiced by one of the largest tribes in India. This art is mainly found in Madhya Pradesh and practiced in Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, Chhatisgarh, and Odisha as well.
Traditionally this art is been painted on the mud walls of the tribal people's houses. But these days a variety of modern media like acrylic paintings on canvas, ink drawings on paper, silkscreen prints, animated film, etc is been used for this art form.
For my artwork, I have used watercolor with a pen on watercolor paper.
This art form is rich in detail, color, mystery, and humor. Gond paintings are popularly drawn during major festivals like Holi, Diwali, etc.
