Phad paintings are very detailed; every inch of the canvas is used. Phad is an indigenous painting style of the state of Rajasthan, India, that depicts the narratives of the folk deities of the state. Since the ancient stories are depicted in the paintings, Phads have a lot of human figures in them. The size and color of which depends upon the role and position they had. These paintings are done on clothes. A thick fine paste of wheat/rice flour, prepared by boiling the mixture in water, is applied on the cloth, which is then dried in sunlight. The cloth is then rubbed with Mohra|(a stone device) to bring out the smoothness and shine in it. Now the cloth is ready to be painted. The colors used in Phad are all-natural, obtained from various plants and vegetable extracts.
These paintings are handmade adding golden touches to the classic black and white work, with natural pigment colors on cloth. A perfect artwork to decorate puja rooms in homes, offices and business places.
