Folk Art

Lagre Courting Dance under the Canopy by Kishor Gayen

Young men and women dance together beneath a spreading canopy in this Paitkar painting by Kishor Gayen. The dance is the lagre, performed in Santhal villages, and Gayen sets the dancers in a linked line so their steps seem to move together across the paper. The canopy above frames the dance like a stage, and the matching poses give the composition a gentle sway. Natural colours on handmade paper keep the tones warm and quiet. Why does this painting stand out? • Hand-painted by Kishor Gayen in natural colours on handmade paper. • A rare painted record of the lagre dance of the Santhal community. • At 22 x 14 inches, it suits living rooms, bedrooms and gallery groupings. • A charming wedding or anniversary gift with a story behind it.

Festive Music and Group Dance by Kishor Gayen

Drums lead the celebration in Kishor Gayen’s Festive Music and Group Dance. Musicians play the tumdak, a barrel drum, and the tamak, a large kettle drum. These two drums set the beat for Santhal festivals, and the dancers follow in a line across the paper. Gayen repeats their poses so the figures seem to step in time with the music. The painting suggests sound as much as movement, which is hard to do in a still image. Natural colours on handmade paper give the scene a soft, earthy finish. Why does this painting stand out? • Hand-painted by Kishor Gayen in natural colours on handmade paper. • The tumdak and tamak drums appear with the dancers, so the music is part of the scene. • At 22 x 14 inches, it suits music rooms, living areas and studios. • A lively gift for music lovers and collectors of folk art. Bring the beat of a Santhal festival home today.

Community Brew and Ritual Offering by Kishor Gayen

Kishor Gayen paints the gathering that comes before a festival in Community Brew and Ritual Offering. Rows of figures prepare and share handia, the rice beer brewed in Jharkhand villages, alongside mahua, made from the flowers of the mahua tree. Both drinks are offered in ritual before they are shared. The figures move in a steady line across the paper, so the brewing, offering and sharing read as one continuous act. Natural colours on handmade paper keep the palette soft and earthy. Why does this painting stand out? • Hand-painted by Kishor Gayen in natural colours on handmade paper. • It records a community ritual of Jharkhand that rarely appears in painting. • At 22 x 14 inches, it works well in dining areas, hallways and as part of a Paitkar series wall. • A distinctive gift for collectors of tribal and folk art.

Shiva-Parvati with Tribal Devotees and Hunters by Kishor Gayen

In Kishor Gayen’s painting, Shiva and Parvati do not sit apart on a distant mountain. They share the scene with tribal devotees and hunters, and hills rise along the upper band of the paper. Placing gods and forest people in one frame is typical of Paitkar painting, which draws on Hindu myths and local tribal life together. Gayen paints this work in natural colours on handmade paper, so the tones are soft and earthy and the paper’s texture shows through. Why does this painting stand out? • Hand-painted by Kishor Gayen in natural colours on handmade paper. • Gods and forest communities share one scene, showing the meeting of myth and tribal life that runs through Paitkar painting. • At 22 x 14 inches, the wide format suits hallways, above a console or a puja room wall. • A rare devotional piece for collectors of eastern Indian folk art.

Lord Krishna by Kishor Gayen

Kishor Gayen paints Krishna in his familiar blue, set beside a tree on a pale ground, and keeps the scene simple enough that the god holds the eye. Paitkar painting usually tells long stories across a scroll. Here Gayen narrows the frame to a single devotional image, and the quiet background gives the blue figure room. Bold outlines and the long Paitkar eye give Krishna his calm expression. Why does this painting stand out? • Hand-painted by Paitkar artist Kishor Gayen of Amadubi, Jharkhand. • A focused devotional composition where the blue Krishna stands clear of the pale ground. • At 20 x 15 inches in acrylic on paper, it fits puja corners, study tables and smaller walls. • A thoughtful Janmashtami or housewarming gift. Welcome Krishna into your home today.

Lord Krishna & Devotees by Kishor Gayen

A broad tree spreads across the top of Kishor Gayen’s Lord Krishna & Devotees, and beneath it the devotees gather around Krishna in a band of figures. Gayen paints in the Paitkar way. His figures are drawn in profile with long eyes and bold outlines, and the scene is laid out so it can be read as a story. Warm yellows and oranges fill the upper half and set a glowing mood above the gathering. The tree shelters the whole group, a reminder of the groves where Krishna’s stories unfold. Why does this painting stand out? • Hand-painted by Paitkar artist Kishor Gayen of Amadubi, Jharkhand. • Profile figures, long eyes and bold outlines in the scroll-painting tradition of Jharkhand. • At 20 x 15 inches in acrylic on paper, it suits puja rooms, hallways and bedroom walls. • A devotional gift for Janmashtami, housewarmings and collectors of rare folk forms.

Village Community by Sadashiv Mhase

Sadashiv Mhase fills Village Community with the whole life of a Warli settlement. Huts, trees and many small white figures spread across cow dung and acrylic on raw canvas, each figure busy with its own task. Nothing sits at the centre as the main subject, because the community itself is the subject. The eye drifts from one small activity to the next, and the painting reads as a village seen all at once. Sadashiv is the elder son of Padma Shri Jivya Soma Mhase, and the figures here carry the same spare, lively line his father made famous. Why does this painting stand out? • Hand-painted by Warli master Sadashiv Mhase, elder son of Padma Shri Jivya Soma Mhase. • Cow dung and acrylic on raw canvas give the earthy ground and texture of a Warli wall. • At 39 x 27 inches, it is a large statement piece for living rooms, lobbies and boardrooms. • A collector’s piece from the family most closely tied to the revival of Warli painting.

Worship of Nature - After Harvesting Crops by Pravin Mhase

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.

Untitled by Sakun Bai

Sakun Bai leaves this Baiga painting untitled and lets the animal at its centre speak for itself. A large creature in red and orange fills most of the sheet, its body broken into bands of pattern that give it weight and movement. Green plant forms sit at the edges against a clean white ground. The white space matters, because it keeps the composition open and makes the warm colours of the animal stand out strongly. Sakun Bai uses the same approach in other works, such as her Couple of Scorpions. Why does this painting stand out? • Hand-painted by Baiga artist Sakun Bai in acrylic on paper. • The bold red and orange animal against a white ground gives a small painting a big presence. • At 11.5 x 16.25 inches, it suits a study, bedroom wall or a cluster of smaller artworks. • An affordable way to begin collecting Baiga art, and a lovely gift.

Bhil Cultural Traditions I by Yashpal Baranda

Yashpal Baranda’s Bhil Cultural Traditions I reads like a page from a village record. The canvas is divided into compartments, and each one holds its own scene from Bhil life, so the painting works as a set of small stories told side by side. Warm reds and earthy oranges run through the panels. The dots that mark Bhil painting fill both the figures and the grounds, giving the whole surface a fine, even texture. Because each panel stands on its own, the eye can rest on one scene before moving to the next, much like reading. The numeral in the title marks this as the first work in a series on Bhil customs. Why does this painting stand out? • Hand-painted by Bhil artist Yashpal Baranda in acrylic on canvas. • The panel layout packs many scenes of Bhil life into one painting, which rewards slow, close viewing. • At 27.5 x 24 inches, it fits living rooms, reading corners and gallery walls. • A thoughtful gift for anyone interested in tribal customs and storytelling through art.

Village Celebration by Siya Shyam

Siya Shyam’s Village Celebration catches a Gond village in the middle of a festival. Figures gather across a bright yellow ground in rows that suggest a group dance moving in step, and their bodies are filled with dense Gond patterning. The yellow reads as sunlight and festivity at once, and it pushes the darker patterned figures forward so each one stands out clearly. Repeated poses give the scene a beat, the way a line of dancers holds a rhythm together. The near-square canvas keeps the gathering close, as if the viewer is standing at the edge of the celebration. Why does this painting stand out? • Hand-painted by Gond artist Siya Shyam in acrylic on canvas. • The strong contrast between the yellow ground and the patterned figures gives the painting real presence from across a room. • At 30 x 27 inches, it suits living rooms, entrances, studios and office breakout spaces. • A joyful gift for housewarmings, festivals and collectors of Gond art. Add this festive scene to your walls and your collection today.

Joyful Cows - Gau Charai by Sahdev Pusham

Sahdev Pusham’s Joyful Cows - Gau Charai turns the daily walk of cattle to their grazing ground into a small celebration. Gau charai means grazing the cows, and here the herd spreads across a soft blue ground that keeps the mood light and open. Pusham builds each cow from fine lines and dots, running pattern through every body so that no two animals look alike. The way the animals turn and overlap gives the scene the playful energy the title promises. The large canvas lets the herd spread out, so the eye travels across the painting the way a herd moves across a field. Why does this painting stand out? • Hand-painted by Gond artist Sahdev Pusham, whose fine line and dot work gives every cow its own pattern. • The calm blue ground lets the patterned herd carry the colour and keeps the composition easy on the eye. • Measuring 50 x 37 inches, this acrylic on canvas painting makes a statement in a living room, lobby or long gallery wall. • A warm gift for animal lovers and anyone drawn to village life and Gond art.

Forest Animals

Four wild boars press together in a tightly packed, overlapping group in this handmade painting by Kaushal Prasad Tekam, their stout bodies rendered in earthy bands of brown, ochre, orange, blue and mauve, each band filled with dense rows of short dash marks that give every surface a richly textured, woven quality. The animals face in different directions, their leaf-shaped ears, expressive eyes and curling tails giving each one a distinct personality despite the uniformity of the palette. The overlapping arrangement compresses the four figures into a single, almost sculptural mass, their bodies merging at the edges in a visual metaphor for the closeness and collective movement of a herd. Painted in acrylic on paper against a warm peach ground, the work captures the Gond understanding of forest animals not as isolated specimens but as creatures that move, rest and exist as a group, their bodies and fates bound together. The earthy, autumnal palette of brown, ochre, orange and blue gives this original artwork a warm, grounded quality that feels drawn directly from the forest floor, the muted tones creating a colour harmony that is both sophisticated and deeply organic. Kaushal Prasad Tekam's dash-work technique builds every band of colour from thousands of individually drawn short marks, creating a surface density that rewards close viewing and distinguishes this handcrafted painting from any printed reproduction. As a piece of Indian art, every boar, every band and every dash was created entirely by hand, carrying an authenticity and individuality that mass-produced prints cannot replicate. This painting holds compelling appeal as distinctive wall art for contemporary home decor and as a culturally significant collectible from the living traditions of Gond tribal painting, available on Rooftop. Why This Artwork Stands Out ### Every band and dash mark is applied entirely by hand by Kaushal Prasad Tekam, making this a unique original artwork of exceptional handcrafted detail. The tightly packed, overlapping composition of four wild boars creates a powerful sense of herd movement and collective energy rooted in Gond forest observation. The warm, earthy palette of brown, ochre, orange and blue gives the work a grounded, organic presence that complements a wide range of home decor and wall art settings. As an authentic Gond painting by a practising master artist, this artwork carries significant cultural relevance and enduring collectible value.

Forest Birds

Four birds are gathered in a close, overlapping arrangement in this handmade painting by Kala Bai Shyam, their plump bodies built from chequerboard blocks of fine horizontal and vertical stripes in alternating palettes of green-and-yellow and orange-and-pink. Two larger birds dominate the composition, one in green and one in warm orange, their wings spread wide as though caught mid-flight or mid-landing, while two smaller birds tuck between them, their compact bodies adding notes of contrasting colour to the grouping. The alternation of green and orange across the four figures creates a rhythmic colour dialogue, the warm and cool tones weaving through the composition like a visual melody. Painted in acrylic on paper, the work presents the forest's bird life not as individual portraits but as a collective, a flock rendered in the graphic, textile-like language of Kala Bai Shyam's distinctive woven-stripe technique. The interplay of green and orange gives this original artwork a fresh, nature-inspired colour harmony that is both vibrant and balanced, the two palettes amplifying each other's intensity against the clean white ground. The overlapping arrangement of the four bodies creates a sense of closeness and communal energy, the birds existing not as separate figures but as parts of a single, interconnected group. Kala Bai Shyam's stripe work is applied with characteristic precision across every wing and body, each block of fine lines drawn individually by hand. As a piece of handcrafted Indian art, every bird was painted entirely by hand, carrying the irreplaceable warmth and authenticity of the truly handmade. This painting holds beautiful appeal as distinctive wall art for contemporary home decor and as a collectible of enduring cultural significance within the Gond tribal painting tradition, available on Rooftop. Why This Artwork Stands Out ### Every striped block across all four birds is drawn entirely by hand by Kala Bai Shyam, ensuring this is a genuine one-of-a-kind original artwork. The overlapping, flock-like arrangement creates a dynamic sense of communal movement and energy that captures the spirit of forest bird life. The fresh green and warm orange palette produces a vibrant, nature-inspired colour harmony that adds life and warmth to any wall art arrangement or interior setting. As an authentic Gond painting by a practising master artist, this artwork carries significant cultural relevance and enduring collectible value.

Gond Animals & Birds

Eight creatures fill this handmade painting by Kala Bai Shyam in a grid-like arrangement of animal forms, each one rendered in bold, interlocking stripes of green, blue, red, pink and brown that give every body a woven, basket-like texture. The menagerie includes deer, owls, cats, dogs and birds, each creature occupying its own space on the warm peach ground, their wide eyes and expressive faces giving every figure a distinct personality. Two round, owl-like creatures sit at the centre with large, heart-shaped facial markings, their compact bodies contrasting with the elongated forms of the running deer and reclining cats that surround them. At the bottom, two birds face in opposite directions, their plump bodies patterned with the same striped, woven technique that unifies the entire composition. Painted in acrylic on paper, the work presents a Gond bestiary: a catalogue of forest inhabitants rendered with affection, humour and an unmistakable graphic boldness. The all-over arrangement of eight distinct creatures gives this original artwork a visual abundance and variety that makes it endlessly engaging, each animal offering its own colour combination and character within the shared language of Kala Bai Shyam's striped, woven-pattern technique. The warm palette of green, pink, blue and brown creates a colour harmony that is both cheerful and sophisticated, the interlocking horizontal lines building a textural richness across every surface. As a piece of handcrafted Indian art, every creature was painted entirely by hand, every stripe and colour block placed with the deliberate care of a master practitioner. This painting holds exceptional appeal as distinctive wall art for contemporary home decor, particularly in spaces that welcome warmth, colour and personality, and as a collectible of enduring cultural significance within the Gond tribal painting tradition, available on Rooftop. Why This Artwork Stands Out ### Every creature is painted entirely by hand by Kala Bai Shyam, with each of the eight animals individually patterned, making this a unique original artwork of remarkable handcrafted detail. The bestiary-style composition of eight distinct forest creatures creates a visually abundant and engaging work that rewards repeated viewing. The warm, cheerful palette and expressive animal faces give the painting a charm and personality that enlivens any wall art arrangement or home decor setting. As an authentic Gond painting by a practising master artist, this artwork carries significant cultural relevance and enduring collectible value.

Birds on a Tree

A blue tree rises at the centre of this handmade painting by Kala Bai Shyam, its trunk patterned with small leaf-like marks in green, red and purple, its branches spreading outward in a graceful, asymmetric canopy that hosts a gathering of birds in muted pinks, browns and ochres. The birds are rendered with fine, wavy line work that gives each one a rippled, feathered texture, their bodies perched, resting and nesting among the branches and the pale green and yellow leaves that fill the spaces between them. At the base of the tree, a large woodpecker-like bird clings to the trunk with a vivid, striped body, while a smaller cross-hatched bird stands on the ground nearby, its posture alert and watchful. Painted in acrylic on paper against a warm peach ground, the composition presents the tree as the centre of a small avian world, a gathering place where every branch holds a different creature and every branch tells a different part of the same story. The cool blue of the trunk against the warm pinks and browns of the birds creates a colour harmony that is gentle and inviting, the muted tones giving this original artwork a quality of quiet refinement that distinguishes it from more intensely chromatic tribal art. Kala Bai Shyam's fine line work builds every surface with a patience and consistency that is the hallmark of the Gond tradition, the rippled patterns on the birds and the delicate leaf marks on the trunk each drawn individually by hand. As a piece of handcrafted Indian art, every branch, bird and leaf was created entirely by hand, carrying the irreplaceable warmth and authenticity of the truly handmade. This painting holds beautiful appeal as distinctive wall art for contemporary home decor and as a collectible of enduring cultural significance within the Gond tribal painting tradition, available on Rooftop. Why This Artwork Stands Out ### Every bird, branch and trunk marking is drawn entirely by hand by Kala Bai Shyam, ensuring this is a genuine one-of-a-kind original artwork. The gathering of multiple bird species around a single tree creates a rich, narrative composition rooted in the Gond tradition's deep connection with forest ecology. The gentle palette of blue, pink, brown and ochre gives the work a refined, understated elegance suited to both contemporary and traditionally styled interiors. As an authentic Gond painting by a practising master artist, this artwork carries significant cultural relevance and enduring collectible value.

Lizards and Tortoise

Two large lizards tumble across this handmade painting by Ram Bai Tekam, their stout bodies rendered in alternating bands of red, ochre, purple and brown, each stripe filled with dense rows of short dash marks that give the creatures a heavily textured, almost armoured surface. The upper lizard stretches diagonally with limbs outstretched and splayed fingers, its single eye gazing forward with quiet alertness, while the second lizard curls beneath it in a complementary arc, its body a shade darker, its purple bands adding a cooler note to the warm palette. In the lower right corner, a small green tortoise completes the composition, its shell built from layered sections of bright and dark green dashes, its round eyes peering out with a patience that contrasts beautifully with the sprawling energy of the lizards above. Painted in acrylic on paper against a warm peach ground, the work presents three forest creatures with the directness and warmth that characterises the Gond tradition's relationship with the natural world. The earthy palette of red, ochre, purple and green gives this original artwork a grounded, organic warmth, the banded colour fields creating a visual rhythm across the composition that feels both decorative and structural. Ram Bai Tekam's dash-work technique builds every surface from thousands of individually drawn marks, each band of colour containing its own dense pattern of short horizontal lines that give the creatures their distinctive, woven texture. As a piece of handcrafted Indian art, every lizard, every tortoise shell segment and every dash was created entirely by hand, carrying an authenticity and individuality that printed reproductions cannot replicate. This painting holds compelling appeal as distinctive wall art for contemporary home decor and as a culturally significant collectible from the living traditions of Gond tribal painting, available on Rooftop. Why This Artwork Stands Out ### Every band and dash mark is applied entirely by hand by Ram Bai Tekam, making this a unique original artwork of exceptional handcrafted detail. The interplay of two sprawling lizards and a compact tortoise creates a dynamic composition that balances movement and stillness within a single frame.

Tribal Black Humans

Dark human figures climb, swing and play across a tall green tree in this handmade painting by Lado Bai, their small, energetic bodies dotted with white and coloured marks that give them a sparkling, animated presence. Two figures sit astride the topmost branches, one holding a stick, their legs dangling with casual ease. A third figure climbs the central trunk, while at the base two more figures swing on simple rope swings that hang from the lower branches, their bodies tilted with the momentum of motion. The tree itself is rendered as a single green stem with four horizontal branches, each decorated with multicoloured feather-like fronds in green, red, yellow and blue that spread outward like a pair of wings at every level. Painted in acrylic on paper, the composition transforms a tree into a vertical playground, a living structure that is not merely observed by its human inhabitants but physically occupied, climbed and celebrated. The contrast between the dark, dot-patterned figures and the colourful, feathery branches gives this original artwork a joyful, almost festive energy, the composition radiating movement and play from every level. The vertical arrangement guides the eye upward through the layers of activity, each tier of branches offering a new scene of human interaction with the tree. Lado Bai's hand is present in every figure, every swing and every multicoloured frond, confirming this as a handcrafted painting of complete authenticity. As a piece of Indian art, every element was created entirely by hand with no digital or mechanical intervention. This painting holds compelling appeal as distinctive wall art for contemporary home decor and as a culturally significant collectible that preserves the joyful, communal spirit of Bhil village life, available on Rooftop. Why This Artwork Stands Out ### Every figure, swing and branch is painted entirely by hand by Lado Bai, making this a unique original artwork with no mechanical reproduction involved. The playful, multi-tiered composition of figures climbing and swinging on a tree captures a joyful dimension of Bhil community life rarely seen in conventional tribal art. The colourful feathery branches against the dark human figures create a vibrant, festive visual contrast that enlivens any wall art arrangement or home decor setting. As an authentic Bhil painting celebrating the relationship between humans and nature, this artwork carries deep cultural significance and lasting collectible value.

Harmony with Nature

Five plump birds stand side by side in a cheerful row across this handmade painting by Lado Bai, their upright postures and rounded bodies giving them the look of a small community gathered in conversation or song. Three are rendered in warm orange with dark dots, their forms glowing with an earthy radiance, while two are painted in vivid blue with white and yellow dots, their cool tones creating a pleasing alternating rhythm across the composition. Each bird stands on slender feet, its wings held slightly open at its sides, its single dark eye gazing outward with a calm, alert expression. Painted in acrylic on paper, the work captures a moment of communal stillness within the animal world, five creatures standing together not in flight or in feeding but simply in the act of being present, side by side, in shared space. The alternating orange and blue palette gives this original artwork a graphic simplicity and colour harmony that is immediately appealing, the warm and cool tones amplifying each other's intensity against the clean white ground. The upright, almost human posture of the birds adds a quality of gentle humour and charm to the composition, inviting the viewer to read personality and relationship into the arrangement. Lado Bai's dot work is applied with characteristic patience across every bird, each mark placed by hand to build texture and surface rhythm. As a piece of handcrafted Indian art, every feather and every dot was created entirely by hand, carrying the irreplaceable warmth of the truly handmade. This painting functions beautifully as distinctive wall art for contemporary home decor and as a collectible of enduring cultural significance within the Bhil tribal painting tradition, available on Rooftop. Why This Artwork Stands Out ### Every bird is painted entirely by hand by Lado Bai, confirming this as a genuine one-of-a-kind original artwork with no prints or reproductions. The charming, upright posture of the five standing birds creates a composition of gentle humour and warmth that is immediately engaging and distinctive.

Tree of Life & Human

A magnificent pink deer leaps across this handmade painting by Lado Bai, its body rendered in vivid magenta and lilac covered in white dots, while its antlers extend and multiply into an elaborate, tree-like canopy of branching pink limbs tipped with yellow and red leaves. Dark birds nestle among the branches, their compact black bodies patterned with white dots, their presence transforming the antlers from mere anatomy into a living habitat, a tree that grows from the body of a running animal. A larger dark bird with a pink-ringed eye rests near the base of the antler-canopy, its rounded form adding weight and stillness to a composition otherwise full of forward motion. Painted in acrylic on paper, the work reimagines the Tree of Life motif in a way that is distinctly Lado Bai's own: the tree is not rooted in the earth but carried by a deer in full stride, a mobile ecosystem of creature, branch and leaf. The striking palette of vivid pink, dark black and yellow-green gives this original artwork a colour combination that is bold, unexpected and immediately arresting against the clean white ground. The composition's left-to-right momentum gives the deer a sense of purposeful movement, as though the tree it carries is being transported to a new place, a new season, a new story. Lado Bai's dot work covers both the deer and the birds with equal precision, uniting them within a shared visual language that blurs the boundary between animal and plant, carrier and carried. As a piece of handcrafted Indian art, every branch, leaf and bird was created entirely by hand, carrying an authenticity that printed reproductions cannot replicate. This painting holds powerful appeal as distinctive wall art for contemporary home decor and as a collectible of deep cultural significance within the Bhil painting tradition, available on Rooftop. Why This Artwork Stands Out ### Every branch, bird and leaf is painted entirely by hand by Lado Bai, ensuring this is a genuine one-of-a-kind original artwork with no mechanical reproduction. The reimagining of the Tree of Life as growing from a running deer's antlers is a visually inventive and narratively rich composition unique to Lado Bai's practice. The vivid pink, black and yellow palette creates a striking, contemporary colour field that commands attention in any wall art arrangement or home decor setting. As an authentic Bhil painting featuring one of Indian art's most iconic motifs, this artwork carries deep cultural meaning and enduring collectible value.

Warli Art Paintings
