The 'Madhubani' folk art series

Recently I have been trying to revive my love for folk arts amid my routine.My designer instincts as always made me improvise and the results are depicted on canvas.Here are my efforts to recreate 'sun god' known and worshiped as 'suraj narayan' by the folks of Bihar in India.The medium chosen is acrylic on a 30" X 40"canvas.

A peek in to the completed canvas:
