3-D work painting: Jharokha

 

Jharokhas are designs of ancient doors and windows popularly seen in Indian monuments and have always been famous for their unique designs. They are particularly appreciated for sculptural artworks by Indian artisans. 

In the above picture, I've tried to illustrate a Jharokha using various craft techniques. I've used shilpkar to make columns, flower, door mesh and some other structures like one on the top and the bottom. Some designs are drawn using acrylic colors and others using stones of different kinds.

This painting has come out as a very beautiful depiction of Indian art, engineering skills and culture. Try it out and let me know your experience in the comments section below.
