ABOUT THE ARTFORM 
Bengal Pattachitra is a traditional scroll painting format that narrates stories of epics and legends, woven in beautiful songs, known as 'Pater Gaan'.
Some Patuas settled in Kolkata outside the Kalighat temple for better avenues as it rose to popularity. They cut short the scrolls and started creating single panel artworks which could be produced quickly and sold as souvenirs. This style developed as a new school of art by the name of Kalighat Pattachitra.

WHAT WE LEARN

Chalchitra is a Bengali word where Chal means covering. It is drawn in Pratima Chala. So, it is called Chalchitra. Patua, the artists of Chalchitra called it as Pata Lekha, means the writing of Pattachitra. It is also called Durga Chala, Debi Chala.

In this intensive workshop, we paint a Mahishasurmardini chalchitra understanding the story and its relevance, the tradition and history of Chalchitra and also largely of Bengal Pattachitra as well.

We start from understanding the basics, practicing the faces and figures and gradually step-by-step, we make the artwork learning the authentic way of painting and detailing. You will be supported personally on and off the sessions.

We stress on understanding the concepts so it is easy and quick for you to adapt the style. Also, we lay special attention to know the history of the artform and the people practicing it to create a closer bond with the artform.

Great book to help establish a palette for a software, web or art project
Format: Paperback
I love this book for helping me establish a color palette for art projects that I want a Japanese feel to. Also just generally good for getting inspiration for color palettes that just plain look good. I've always, since I can remember from my youth, felt drawn to the Japanese color combinations in kimono. fashion, origami paper and even toys. Maybe it's a consequence of growing up in Hawaii with all the Japanese influences I had -- or, as I suspect, it's just really good color application. This book helps me find the colors I want that go together the way I want. I use the examples in this book with a Color Muse to pick my digital color palette.

Terrific content, soft cover.
Format: Paperback
It is way smaller than expected but it is amazing in content. The only think I do not like is that it has an extremely soft external cover, which worries me on the long run.

Useful and creative gift
Format: Paperback
I bought this for my friend since she has really been into sewing and dressing up in bolder outfit. When she saw the book, she told me she has been eyeing this and was really interested in the different color combinations. It is a small but unique book with so many different patterns and color combinations that can inspire people's lives with how they dress or decorate their living area.
