Rangoli-89

Republic Day Rangoli

Here is one Rangoli for our  Republic Day  celebrated on 26th January. This one is very simple.

In center I have used a 5X5 block and then extended on all sides as shown in the photo. Place the dots, join them and fill with colours. I have written JaiHind in three languages around the flags.

How do you like it? It is very simple and easy to draw as well as takes less time even for colouring.

Rangoli with GIMP

Y-Knot on her blog Y-Knot Blog has experimented with Rangoli designs using GIMP. They are so beautiful. She started with those Rangolis which are drwan using lines. Now she has started with those using dots. 

They are so beautiful. Alas I don't know how to work with GIMP. I am tempted to learn it because I feel one can create so many new designs out of one design by using this method. For now I don't have that much time to learn. But after looking at her creations, I am tempted to learn it.

She has done a great job. I am just amazed at her creativity. the designs look very different too. But I feel some of them are very difficult to actually draw with hand. 

Any way just follow the link and see the beauty of her creations, how she has played with them. I was very much tempted to post some of her photos but I could not wait till I took her permission...I was dying to write about her creations...So here is the link.

Thanks a lot Y-Knot. They are just very beautiful creations. You are one talented person. I will try to keep on posting some different designs so that you can experiment with them. I loved going through your designs.
