There is more to the world of calligraphy!Calligraphic Murals!!

I learnt how to make calligraphic murals after my 12th boards (I had a lot of time to engage in my hobbies). I love making Murals. The colours, textures of these murals can be played around easily and made as interesting as one wants them to be.
I love the fact that it is a distinct member from the family of 'calligraphy'.
The unique textures formed by the smooth/irregular/ rough movement of hands really makes me feel awed.
Sometimes I feel that the texture you let your fingers and hands to make unconsciously determine your state of mind at that moment at that time..I realized this fact from experience.
The area surrounding the sculpture of the gods or goddesses are an amalgamation of Plaster of Paris, Fevicol and acrylic Paints in right proportions.

This was my first mural.I love the colours around ganeshji. And i love how the rays with colours slowly transform from the reddish-black to oragish-yellow. And the others follow :)
