Worship of Nature - After Harvesting Crops by Pravin Mhase

Created by Pravin Mhase

Description

Once the crops are in, Warli families give thanks to the land that fed them, and Pravin Mhase paints that moment in Worship of Nature - After Harvesting Crops. White figures gather across a cow dung base, the same earthen ground used to plaster Warli homes, and their gestures turn toward worship rather than work. The cow dung gives the painting its warm brown tone and slightly uneven texture, so the figures sit on a surface that feels like a village wall. Pravin, grandson of Padma Shri Jivya Soma Mhase, keeps to the circle and triangle figures of the tradition and lets the arrangement carry the feeling of gratitude.

Why does this painting stand out?

• Hand-painted by Warli artist Pravin Mhase of the Mhase family.

• Cow dung base with acrylic and poster colour, the traditional Warli ground brought to a portable surface.

• A meaningful gift around harvest festivals and housewarmings. Bring this harvest thanksgiving home today.
