Here are the kolams and rangolis in this page:
- Beginners kolam
- Abstract Kolam
- Arsimaavu Kolam
- Borders
- Arsimaavu Kolam - two different styles
- Beginners kolam
- New meduim - Dosai maavu kolam
- Studio Kolams
This rangoli looked so plain and simple in my kolam book. Thanks to Anita because she decided the colouring which I am very pleased with.
One more experiment of maakolam which I did on my kitchen top - likewise to get it perfect I had to do it more than 4 to 5 times and this is the outcome - next time I will try Lata's suggestion of putting colour in the gaps.
Now that Gowri is back I thought I should upload some more border designs for her everyday chalk kolams.
And finally my attempt at arsimaavu kolams - can this be classified as a padi kolam?? Experts please tell me? Lata if you look carefully you will see tiny dot spillings around the kolam (though I was very very careful not to spill). This kolam also I put about 4 times before I was able to get an almost perfect outcome - waited for it to dry fully and then clicked a pic and after I finished taking the pic I used a dry cloth to remove the arsimaavu - but to my surprise I discovered another style of kolams. I immediately clicked and have attached to the original picture for all of you to see and enjoy. Rajamma no ear buds this time, only dry cloth hehe......
Dots: 5 - 5
This was the kolam I was talking about - the one that closely resembles the hand woven mats from "Mana" Village, near Badrinath which Jayanthi had uploaded. Ref :
