Warli Painting Warli paintings are done on walls of the huts of Warli tribe. Warlis are tribals who live in Thane district in the hinterland of Maharashtra, in simple dwellings of clay and reed plastered with cowdung. Warli is derived from warla meaning: a piece of land or a field. These paintings depict social life, like marriage, dance, sowing, harvesting or hunting. Each painting is usually an entire scene that contains various elements of nature including people, animals, trees, hills etc. http://maps.google.com
These wall paintings are created by using very basic shapes: circles, triangles and squares. The circle and triangle come from their observation of nature, the circle representing the sun and the moon, the triangle derived from mountains and pointed trees. White color is used as it is considered sacred and pious. http://warlipaintingsart.blogspot.com/ http://warlipainting.com/
