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.

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.
