Rangoli: Embroidary
Created by viji_j86 on 2010-06-28,

Friends,
I just want to give my contribution then there.
But what to do?
My kaivannam is crafts and embroidary only.
O.K. O.K. Let me be an excemption from kolams.
Lata, doing embroidary works can also be consider as handwork equal to kolam no?

Rangoli: Peacock  ( for Kahani magazine)
Created by SuriK on 2009-05-15,

Here is a picture of a peacock I drew last year. It was supposed to be sent to a magazine, but my parents forgot to send it on time!

This is dotted rangoli, dots for this 11 X 1, with free hand design also drawn in front of my house to-day morning.
Named after seeing mOhanaji's "Krishna's feather" - Thanks to mOhanaji

Rangoli: Krishna's feather
Created by jkmrao on 2009-02-24,

In lIlASuka's SrIkRshNa karNAmRtam, there is a SlOka (sragviNi metre)
which runs like this:

aMganA maMganA maMtarE mAdhavO
mAdhavaM mAdhavaM cAMtarE nAMganA
ittha mAkalpitE maMDalE madhyagaH
saMjagau vENunA dEvakInaMdanaH

He stands between two dancing damsels
and there is a woman between two identities of His
At the centre of the circle constructed thus
dEvakI's son plays the flute,
O, what a divine melody!

This is the first poem in rAsakrIDAshTakam.

I cannot draw peacocks like many of you.
I thought a feather will do to represent Him.

Regards! - mOhana
