MURAL PAINTINGS OF KERALA - LINKS WITH MORE INFORMATION AND PICTURES

THIS is the website of Mural artist Suresh Muthukulam. He has allowed modern art to sneak into his murals.  If you are looking for Original Kerala Mural paintings, this is not the place.

This link describes how the wall is prepared for painting.

Here is another link giving a detailed description of the process of mural paintings in Kerala, the brushes and colours that were traditionally used.

The next link is to the website of Mural Artist Sadanandan - he underwent an intensive 5 year training in Mural painting. If you the kind of person who likes art  retained in its traditional form, you will be disappointed. If however, you like morden flavours creeping in, you'll love this.

To round off this post, this link has links to all prominent pages featuring mural painting.

Have a nice time browsing!  I'll be back with more pictures.
