The local goddess is being given a kaleidoscopic portrayal in the beautiful Madhubani painting. Her eyes are prominent and the surroundings are given a geometric depiction. The borders are nicely painted. Madhubani paintings are centred in Mithila in North Bihar and these paintings are made exclusively by the women in the region. Natural colours and powders such as holi are used extensively to depict local and mythological characters. Sharp lines and beautiful patterns characterize these paintings that reveal the uniqueness of this paatern of art.
