This is a deepam kolam for deepavali or lakshmi pooja. Drawing kolams is our Indian tradition. There are various examples which signifies that this is an ancient culture. For example , it is said that goddess laxmi used to draw 3 lines on the cooking stove before cooking using rice flour. Warli painting is also such an example which exists today as well.
Please do support me and our beautiful indian culture and keep it growing.
