"Kunku".....an abstract figurative by Manisha Vedpathak

This painting was inspired from one of my Indian

friends who always wear this "Kunku " on her forehead.

"Kunku" is a Marathi word for the red powder

that most of the married Indian ladies wear on the forehead.

It is known by various names in different languages in India,

for example Kumkum in Hindi, Kunkumam in Tamil etc.

This painting is just a practice while a big one is in process.
