Detailed Description

When Indian art is thought of, many things come to mind. From the extremely detailed Kalamkari art to the very simplistic miniature paintings. There is a huge variety from place to place, culture to culture. One thing common in all of them, though, is they all tell stories. These stories have been passed down through generations via oral culture and artistic expression. Unfortunately, despite all the richness in art, Indian art is rarely seen in animation. This paper takes the art of Jamini Roy as an example and focuses on methods to bring his stories to life.
