Make a Madhubani Painting

Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month

Learn to paint in the Madhubani folk art form of India. This ancient art form is characterized by line drawings filled in with bright colors and intricate designs and patterns.

Madhubani art originated in northern India. These paintings were traditionally made with natural dyes; they consist of bold motifs in vibrant colors with a base of dark line work. Learn the basics of Madhubani art and paint a scene in this style using acrylic paints on paper.
