Kolam For Beginners - Part II


Hello everybody,

In the previous blog for beginners I gave some ideas on Kolams of 3 dots and 3 lines.   I also explained how to expand the same to a bigger size Kolam.

Now in the first sheet, keeping the same 3 dots, 3 lines, I have drawn different designs both in short form and expanded form.  Please try this and hope you will enjoy the same.






In the second sheet, I have tried to give you some ideas on how to draw four dots, four line Kolams, both in single formation and expanded formation.



In the final drawing, a bigger Kolam is drawn by extending the dots, as explained in my previous blog. The point to be remembered is that in single design, we close the ends, while extending the same to a bigger one; we keep open the ends to connect to the next formation.



Any questions/clarification required, please do not hesitate to drop your comments. You can also leave your own drawings on facebook.com/kolamforall for others to see. Don’t forget to “Like” us Facebook.

See you next with some new idea, until then let this great tradition be pursued with all earnestness.
