Paavaikkai kolam.

About Paavaikkai kolam. : PRINT

This kolam is also an oldest pattern slightly modified. The dot count is 9-5 inbetween dots, then 2-1 on all the six sides.The yellow colored design is called ' Paavaikkai or bittergaurd' design, we all would have put this so many times. The centre will be usually a star design which I have changed in to a flower design. In the outer colomn also instead of paavaikai, I put small girls like design going around, hoping the younger generations also will continue this Kolam Art.

Rangoli: Paavaikkai kolam.

I want to color the outer color dolls differently, but notime, since I was hurrying to go and see the newborn baby in our family,.( Yes, Jayanthi, my neice is blessed with a cute little baby grandson on 18th.And my mother became the great great grandmother.) By the time I returned the rangoli was spoilt by the passers. so uploaded the photo taken earlier.

Great creativity. Proves that creative ornamental work can make a old design absolutely new.

Very nice, madam.
The idea of allowing the floor colour also to be visible amidst the rangoli has given a beautiful effect.Gives the entire kolam a mosaic effect.
