About Chalk Kolam in Singapore! : PRINT
Lately i am not making any new kolams just getting inspired by our ikolam website and making designs.. This kolam is what i call is an amateur padi kolam 
... Padi kolam experts please ignore my ignorance ( wow i am becoming rhythmic )...
Anyway i was upset for 2 days that even though i uploaded some of my chalk kolams nothing was published, is that because of the size of the image file, this time i am trying to upload, let me check my luck...
Each kolams in our website has all flavours, simple, elegant, beautiful, rich, colorful, soulful, intelligent, divine, symmetric, traditional, unique and finally inspired ( most of my kolams belong to this category hehehehe )...
I am happy to be part of this website.

Well Gowri, what can I say, I mean not everybody can be as hard working as you!
Who knows, maybe the lady who is responsible for this site could be a lazy one, who just plops on her sofa and watches soaps all day long!
Why don't you email her and ask her to speed up a little, sounds like she can learn a thing or two from you.

Gowri,share your inspiration kolam also with us! Atleast we will get a chance to come to Singapore to beat you! If you inform the dates on which you are available at Chennai, we will try to meet one day! Btw, when is your marriage? Is it at Chennai?

Dear Rajamma amma,
Neenga sollitingana edhu kollamey illa just boxes tan
!!!! Your kolams are so traditional. I love them all. Going to copy the engagement padi kolam of yours for my brothers marriage this May.
Sangu,Chakram,Deepam,Sun and border I cant make kolams without these. I have tried many times to avoid those but during final finishing it pops into the kolam without my knowledge.
My wedding would be somewhere around year end 2009... Fiance's name sollala ma ?? hahahaha
Nagarajan ... So again it would be Gowri Manohari Nagarajan instead of Gowri Manohari Narayanan.
Can you please let us know how padi kolam got its name ? What is its speciality ? How it originated ?
