I got interested in art through my daughter. my daughter is very good in painting, one day i saw her painting and try to make it on a sheet by myself and showed to her. she was so surprise and force me to start doing painting. as i want to make some unique thing that can show my own ability so, i decided to make gond painting. my painting is about ancient gond stories; about their culture, god, food they eat, types of huts etc. as i thought these painting are getting extinct throughout this morden technologycal world. i want it to show to the world from my talent, creativity, imagination and stories. my artwork speaks, not only to me but for the people that were long ago silenced. i do not only capture the image with my brush, but i want that culture and mindset to be know by everyone in the world. i do the work that i actually believe in. i’m gond means ( tribal people ) so,i know little bit about my gond culture, i went to my village and try to listen ancient stories from old mans and women. so, i decided to be a gond painter.
Gond painting is a famous folk art of the Gond tribal community of central India. It is done to preserve and communicate the culture of the Gond tribal community. Gond tribal art includes folk dances,folk songs,and Gond paintings.
