Join us for a special tutorial on Gond art, led by the masterful Venkat Raman Singh Shyam Ji. Despite patchy network connections, we are incredibly grateful to have our wonderful artists take the time to share their art with us, and Venkat Ji was painstakingly able to share his video tutorial showcasing the beautiful Nandi (bull) painting. Venkat Ji has incorporated new art techniques like wash painting in his work, setting it apart from traditional Gond art styles.
Did you know that in Gond art, the patterns used to complete the artwork are the unique signature of each artist? For instance, Venkat Ji's pattern is a Bindu (dot) and a half moon (semicircle), which represents his village and his community. How beautiful is that?
We encourage you to try your hand at creating something in this therapeutic folk art style and share it with us. Send us your creations on Instagram at @me_meraki, and let's celebrate the beauty of Gond art together.
