This is a great kolam rangoli design for beginners to practice. Begin with the two overlapping triangles in the center to make a star, and proceed to the two whirls of petals.
Kolam rangolis are great for exercising your artistic side, everyday :-)
Conch shells in the center, surrounded by a a round of flowers, and finished off with immaculate elephants. This kolam is from Chennai.
What a splendid picture in white chalk powder and colours!
