Inspired by temple walls and ancient storytelling, Kerala mural art is celebrated for its mythological themes, bold outlines, and rich natural pigments in earthy reds, greens, and yellows. Traditionally painted on temple walls, these artworks depict deities, scenes from epics, and symbolic motifs with elegance and rhythm.

In this guided workshop, you’ll trace a traditional motif onto canvas, making it beginner-friendly and then bring it to life using acrylic paints. From outlining the form with confident strokes to carefully filling in details with natural tones, you’ll experience the meditative process that defines this timeless artform.

What's included:

✔️ All material required for the workshop

✔️ Step by step guidance by our mentoring artist

✔️ Coffee, Tea, Nibbles and the company of the fun-est people!

About Gali Art Fest 2025

Gali Art Fest is an initiative of Alive Studio to honour India’s handmade traditions — not through textbooks or timelines, but by picking up the brush ourselves. Our team of mentors & art practitioners guide you through folk and craft-inspired workshops where you’ll try traditional techniques and reimagine them in ways that fit into your everyday — on journals, textiles, keepsakes, and walls.It’s for anyone who’s curious about where our art comes from, and how we can keep it alive — not by preserving it in glass, but by making it with our own hands.
