Thank you, Rani ma'm and all others for the encouraging comments. My mother (73 years "young") has a passion for kolams and is overwhelmed by all the comments by ikolamites. Her entry for the contest has been submitted by my SIS and awaiting all your comments and votes. Her username is "BharathiKRaman". Also looking forward to seeing all your entries in the contest. All the best to all of you - Indu
Thanks for sharing your mother's work with us.
Indeed her passion for kolams is well seen in the above picuture. A Big Main kolam decorated with chikku kolams on corners, I think the other two on the bottom and for the final touch with a long border chikku strand.
Convey my wishes to her.
Brindha thanks for the hint - wnen I saw this kolam I was wondering why it looked so familiar.. WOW - will I be in a position to put such wonderful kolams at the age of 73?? Excellent work by your mom Indu - hats off to her passion. I would love to have a closer look at those chikku kolams on top..
Thanks for your comments and appreciation. We all also wonder how she manages such lovely creations at this age. I do have a picture of it with all the 4 chikku kolams around. But I am not sure if it is ok to upload it again, since the main kolam is the same. Please advise. Thanks, - Indu
Very neat and beautiful kolams. Very neat presentation to. Convey our regards to your young mother. Lets all get inspired by her enthu. You can always give a closer look of the four corner sikku kolams. you crop(remove) the main kolam and attach only the corner sikku kolams. Four different kolams may be made as a collage.
Beautifully drawn and the strokes look so bold n crisp (I know at this age). "Hats off". Waiting to c more creations fm her side :) Is that a border on the left hand side just beneath the small chikku kolam ?
