The Gond tribe painted the walls of their mud homes with pictures to mark important occasions such as weddings, birth and the harvest. Gond painting has no borders or rigid themes and is done with very bright colors. The basic form is filled with tiny dots and dashes.

  • Scissors
  • Glue
  • Card stock
  • Paints
  • Paint brush
  • Marker
  • Pencil (for sketching)
For each bird cut 4 pieces (2 wings, tail and body) from different color construction paper.

Enjoy the art!
