“Warli” is a folk painting style that takes its name from the largest tribe in the Maharashtra region of Western India. For generations, the “Warli” people, living near Mumbai have covered the mud walls of their homes with the natural red paint. These painting served as a visual narrative of daily life events and usually depict people and animals in a combination of geometric designs.
A “Warli” painting example is the red painting in the background.
