Hi All,
Another fav of mine. During my school days in shimla and mumbai, i used to draw(infact scribble) with kola podi in front of our small flat,Usually the north indian type color kolam. I remember once during diwali, my mom made a kolam with green paint. I was admiring that kolam for hours. Then life changed and i was put in a girls hostel in tirunelveli when my dad and mom and kid sister moved abroad for work, Had no chance of making kolam ( another reason is that i grew up like a boy, basketball game and studies stuff) when started going to college from home only i tried making kolam in the mud patch front of our home which amma cleans with fresh cowdung and turmeric water. Mostly learnt from neighbours, amma, books and all my cousins in village.
Now getting a big cement platform but no kola mavu 
....
As suggested by the forum members will try to use rice maavu , when i have time left from my tiring 12 hour work 
..
I think the swastik mark is also wrong in this kolam, all these kolams which i am uploading is from the time i came to singapore ( from jan ) till now. Will correct the swastik mark henceforth.
Take care,
See you all again with another kolam,
Gowri Manohari Narayanan.

hridayakamalam is a chikku kOlam!
See the up and down movement of the string in this hridayakamalam (same as hk-2).
Depending upon the complexity of the kOlam, the number of points of intersection
varies. In this case, it is 16. The hridayakamalam like this has handedness.

This is the Padi kolam I drew for Tamil new year. Here in US we don't get kolapodi so I managed to draw it with little kolapodi and arisi maavu.

"Thamizh puthandu vaalthukal"
This is a line kolam for tamil new year. The basic design for this kolam is from the Meenakshi temple "sudhai sirpam" with naaga design, seen on the roof after being painted newly for the kumbabishekam.

Mango takes me back to my childhood. I remember the days when every Friday
my father will decorate the front door with fresh leaves and a toraNa. Then there
was always this pUja or that pUja with kalaSam full of leaves. Then the countless
varieties of pickles my mother used to make to last the whole year. jADis full of
aavakAya, mAgAya, meMtikAya, etc. Then the fruits of various varieties, the
rasAlu, the nIlam, the baMganapalli, the pasaMds, etc. Where have those days
gone, those sweet days when there was nothing to care about except school. Gone
are they, gone are the parents, gone are the sisters, gone are the friends.
Nothing but memories in a foreign land whre the mango tastes like anything but a
mango!
