    Warli art is a folk art tradition of Maharashtra created by tribal women on the walls of their homes using white rice paste and geometric patterns like circles, triangles, and lines to depict people, animals, houses, and crops. The paintings represent the simple lives of the Warli tribe and are executed without straight lines on mud walls using chewed bamboo sticks as brushes, as the art was traditionally used to transmit stories and culture before the written word.

    WARLI ART

    • Warli art is a beautiful folk art of Maharashtra, traditionally created by the tribal
    womens. ... Tribal people express themselves in vivid styles through paintings
    which they execute on the walls of their house. This was the only means of
    transmitting folklore to a populace not acquainted with the written word.
    The Warli art has a special characteristic of
    representing the humble life of the Warli tribe. The
    trademark of Warli paintings is the use of geometric
    designs such as triangles, circles, squares, dots and
    crooked lines are used to depict human figures,
    animal figures, houses, crops etc.
    The Warli paintings are done on mud walls with white
    paste. This white paste is a mixture of rice paste and
    water with gum as a binding. They use a bamboo stick
    chewed at the end to make it as supple as a paintbrush. ...
    You would never see a straight line in Warli art.
