Thx for the comments, friends. First step is to fill the bowl with cold water, then sprinkle talcum powder on the water and finally draw the design. Since i live in dublin i do not have the actual kolappodi (white powder) to mix colors and tried with rice floor to mix the color - but the colors started dissolving, so then i bought some colored sand (which are used for decorative purposes here) and finally draw the design.
