About Basic Design Inspiration Rangoli : PRINT

Hi everybody,

This is my maiden attempt in making a free hand rangoli with reference to the second design (Right hand side). It reminds me of the proverb - Too may cooks spoil the broth. In the enthusiasm of creating a rangoli design, I feel that I have done too much of decoration to this. Anyhow, still wanted to share it with you all. Please let me know your comments.

Very very beautiful design Maha...this looks really neat and not congested as you feel. Looks like you are more inspired by Arabic designs as I can see them here and there....is it not????

Thanks a lot Indira, Rani (please, I'm waiting to see ur floor version), Rajamma (is it so? Actually I didn't mix both the designs), Uma, Priya, Dr Rekha (yes, Rani will execute it on floor and will give life to my rangoli), Dr Malar, Julien, Suguna, Sowmya (actually those leafy designs more or less resembles arabic henna painting design) and Veena for your encouraging comments.
Now this gives me the confidence and enthusiasm to work on the first design too.

Wow Maha dear, this is so good. It would have looked to good on ur red floor with wet maavu... Hmm miss that floor. I envy Rani mam cos she has so much space but i am glad too cos she will bring out this wonderful design on floor. Rani mam me too waiting eagerly for ur version.

Pushpa, somehow I managed to do this paper version. But I don't dare to do this on floor, because the so called "Symmetry" which is more in demand, is the problem for me. Until now, I haven't done any free hand rangoli on floor.

Maha, I guess both of us are sailing in the same boat. I too am so bad with symmetry. When u see the kolam i tried u will know. Hmm sniff sniff i am still so embarrassed by that yet uploaded it. Stupid me.
