"Knotty" changed to folk dancers...

I felt the artwork posted in previous post rather simple ,

so here I have added to it. These are the folk dancers from Ghana.

"Folk dancers"

Hope you enjoy this piece.

 



 



Kathakali on panel

I had painted these two small mask

 paintings some time ago and they were

just lying around. So I decided to

fix it on a long panel and painted the

panel.

These paintings are of the mask of

the Kathakali dance which is the most

    well known dance drama from the south

 Indian state of Kerala.The word Kathakali

literally means "Story-Play".  It is known

     for its large, elaborate makeup and costumes. 

Kathakali is usually performed only by men.

The actors rely very heavily on hand

gesture to convey the story.

I have finished with this painting,

but I feel I should add some more

dancers to the painting instead of

just two.I would love to have

opinion from my fellow artist.
