In our country, we have a long and rich history of folk paintings. People in different regions of India developed their own style and methods, which is why we have such a wonderful variety of art forms. Folk artists often use colours they make from stones, barks and plants – eco-friendly and chemical-free! Their paintings are vibrant and full of action. They are done on leaves, on cloth, paper or metal and the style of painting is often passed from generation to generation.

Take a look at the paintings below and see how much you know about them!
