The beautiful Madhubani painting depicts the ferocious Goddess Kali trampling over the sleeping Shiva in a most refine manner. The ferocious Goddess is wearing a garlands of beheaded skulls and blood is dripping from her bulging tongue. Madhubani style of painting is marked by line drawings filled in by bright colours and contrasts or patterns. Though traditionally done by the women folk of the region, nowadays men are also involved in the process. These are basically tribal art which are marked by the application of strong earthly colours. Madhubani paintings are done with mineral pigments prepared by the artists. The work is done on freshly plastered or a mud wall. But nowadays, to meet the growing commercial demand, such paintings are also done on paper, cloth and canvas.
