Binda Devi was an Indian artist, specializing in painting in the Madhubani tradition. She is one of the most well-known Madhubani artists from India. Binda Devi is a renowned Mithila artist known for her contributions to the Madhubani painting tradition. Mithila painting, originating from the Mithila region of India and Nepal, is a style of Indian painting traditionally done by women on the walls of their homes during rituals and festivals. Binda Devi, along with other artists, played a key role in popularizing this art form by transferring it to paper and canvas, making it accessible to a wider audience.
Madhubani painting, also called Mithila painting, is a unique style of painting, practiced in the Mithila region of Nepal and Indian States of Bihar. Painting is done with fingers, twigs, brushes, nib-pens, and matchsticks, using natural dyes and pigments, and is characterized by eye-catching geometrical patterns. Traditionally the paintings were drawn on interior walls in the village houses by Hindu women of the Brahmin and Kyshath castes who handed down their visual knowledge from one generation to the next. The folk paintings represent a variety of symbolic meanings mainly associated with the celebration of fertility in Madhubani weddings and seasonal rituals, but also include the major gods and goddesses of the Hindu pantheon, in particular, Sita, the wife of the god Ram, and a central figure in the Hindu epic the Ramayana.

Untitled, Figurative, Batik on Cloth by Modern Indian Artist Laxma Goud-In Stock
By Laxma Goud
Located in Kolkata, West Bengal
K. Laxma Goud - Untitled - 24 x 34 inches
Batik on Cloth
( FRAMED ALL IN DOOR DELIVERED )
Style : Goud displays versatility over a range of mediums, from printmaking, drawing, watercolour, gouache and pastels to glass painting and sculpture in bronze and terracotta. Over the many years of his artistic career, he is known to have moved from one medium to another with élan. Fellow artist T. Vaikuntam, in one of his interviews, reminisces that it was Laxma Goud who introduced him to the art of sketching and made him aware of the possibilities of this medium.
When one looks at Goud’s work, rustic, raw, and potent might be the first words that come to mind. His portraits of men and women represent the dynamic Indian ethos rather than particular individual identities. A recurrent theme with the artist is that of the erotic, treated as an active and powerful aspect of male and female sexuality and existence. Goud’s work is dramatic; his protagonists are raw and vivacious in their appeal, imbibed with energy that reverberates through his strokes and textures. Most of Goud’s art is centered on the rural, recreating landscapes from his childhood as if they were frozen in time. In the artist’s later work, his figures turn softer, more introspective than brash in their outlook.
