Description

About the Craft:
Sohrai painting is a traditional art form from Jharkhand, India, using natural colors like clay, plants, and soot. The artwork typically depicts natural scenes, animals, crops, and aspects of rural life. It is made using fingers or natural materials instead of brushes. Historically, it was done on mud walls, but now it is also created on canvas, cloth, wood, and pottery. The art holds cultural significance, especially during festivals like Sohrai, celebrated during harvest time.
