Sankranti Rangoli-3
Here are some more designs.
This is one of the square designs. I have kept it very simple. I will post more elaborate ones later. See how the four horizontal and vertical lines have been used.
Here are two more simple but small designs;
These two small designs are known ad "Gade" in Telugu. Gade means granary-the place where they store the grain after harvest till its use. Why these designs are so called I have no clue. A granary in South India is made of bamboo and coated with mud with a slanting top above. The top may be covered with dry grass.
Since India is a country of villages and most of our lives are very closely associated with agriculture, it is no wonder that the things like the tolls used for farming, cattle etc-related to agriculture form part of our Rangoli designs. This is one example.
How intricate these designs look. Again I have kept them very simple. They can still be developed upon to get a bigger Rangoli. I will post bigger versions of these some time
