The Ancient Desi Paintings India
Paintings in India have a long and glorious history in India. Some of the oldest works like those of Raja Ravi Varma have acquired the antique status long ago and are rarely in circulation. Desi paintings India has a number of variations. The cultural heritage of the nation itself being so very ancient and vibrant, it is only natural that art has flourished in this land for several centuries. India boasts of world class painters in modern times too. For a broad classification, one can divide these works into murals and miniatures. Murals are the larger works found on solid structures such as temples, palaces, or caves. Some of these date back to 5500 BC. The paintings at Ajanta & Ellora are classic examples of Murals. Miniature paintings have largely been executed on perishable mediums like cloth or paper. Some representative forms of Desi paintings India are dealt with in greater detail below
Madhubani Painting

Rajasthani Painting
Rajasthan is another Indian state. Rajasthani painting is another variation of Desi paintings India and is supposed to have flourished in the royal courts of Rajputana, India during the 18th century. Colors used for these works in those days often posed a great challenge. Plants, minerals, conch shells and other ingredients had to be processed over several weeks to obtain the desired colors. Certain colors even involved the processing of gold, silver and precious stones.

How to paint a Madhubani painting in a 'proper' way?
I'm interested in Madhubani art (Mithila art) and I want to make those paintings but I have done using acrylics on paper so far. Right now I am making a new painting oil on canvas. How do I learn to do it in a proper authentic way (not with cow dung on the walls with bamboo stick), where they use silk instead of paper. Which color silk/fabric do I buy and what color and which paint?

First off I like your painting very much, but. Instead of paint you should try ink dye on silk. On white silk they also sell very colorful inks that are made for silk . Just do a google search for it. " Ink dyes for silk "
