Pichwai Painting by Amrita Sequeira
Pichwai paintings originated in Nathdwara, Rajasthan. Intricate and visually
stunning, Pichwai paintings were made of cloth, depicting tales from Lord
Krishna's life.
Amrita box-packed the material for the workshop, which included the terracotta
plate, acrylic paints, brushes, and apron. Screens were put up around the hall, to
help members focus and understand the process properly. Members sat in small
groups working diligently on their paintings.
Amrita sang songs that had a therapeutic calming effect on the ladies present.
Founder Sarita Shroff joined the C wing workshop with artistic enthusiasm.
Lunch was served at 2.00 pm which the members ate and left with their precious
creations – to show their efforts to the family.
