A round rangoli done only in white. Started with 6 petal flower and extending it with another set of petals. I had drawn three circles as a guide to draw this kolam and outlined the circles with a chalk piece. Tried a mesh type fillings on the outer layer which is easy to draw. I have divided the circle into segments with radial lines. Draw curvy lines from one side of the radial line to the other end, Now repeat the same drawing method from the opposite side and that completes the cross line design.
Sketch the Central Focal Contour
Clean and dampen the floor. With light chalk or a thin stream of white rice flour, sketch the primary central motif (such as a blooming lotus, royal peacock, or sacred oil lamp).
Sweep Concentric Petals Outward
Radiate curving petals, mango paisleys, or flowing floral flourishes outwards from the center, maintaining uniform distance across all quadrants.
Blend Vibrant Natural Powders
Fill the petals and interior sections with rich festive colored powders or dyed rice grains, blending smoothly from deep shades at the base to bright tones at the tips.
Define Crisp Edges & Corner Lamps
Outline all boundaries with a bold, steady line of pure white rice flour to give the colors radiant contrast. Place brass or earthen oil lamps at the perimeter points.
