Bengal Pattachitra is a storytelling folk tradition practiced by the Patua community who paint and also sing these stories through 'Pater Gaan'

In this 10 hours workshop, we learn about the history of this folk art and create Kamalakamini or 'Ganesh Janani', a popular representation of Ma Parvati in Bengal pattachitra. We start from scratch, learning step by step techniques of drawing, coloring and detailing.

ABOUT THE ARTFORM AND ARTISTS
Bengal Patuas or Chitrakars are bearers of an ancient storytelling tradition that is fast disappearing. Known variously as Patu, Pota and Putua, and Islamic by faith, the Patua artists represent a unique and secular art tradition, earning their livelihood by telling stories from Hindu mythology, local folklore, Sufi tradition and contemporary themes, through paintings and song.

In Sanskrit, ‘pata’ means cloth — the Patuas initially painted on dried leaves or cloth; they painted stories of culture, religion, society, nature and folklore, accompanied by song. Over the last 25 years, it has transformed primarily into a visual art tradition handed down from generation to generation among the Patuas of Bengal, and women of the community also began to have more access and participate in producing patas. (via Sarmaya)

Sh. Uttam Chitrakar is a Patua artist from the West Mediniur district of West Bengal. His parents are clay idol artists, he started painting Patas post his wedding, learning from her mother-in-law, a senior and celebrated artist, Swarna Chitrakar.

His style is highly refined and his paintings are a part of V&A Museum collection of Kalighat art.

The Perfect Valet Tray
Pattern Name: No Engraving, Pattern Name: No Engraving
Arrived well packaged in a sturdy box and wrapped in waterproof padding. The appearance of the wood and stain is high quality and matches pretty close to the walnt dresser. When I opned the box, it did not have any mysterious smells that make me sneeze. Adequate organizer that fits what I need. It is very balanced and sturdy with no warped wood. The notch for the phone charger cable is a nice touch Overall, I was presently surprised and would recommend this valet tray.

Overall Sturdy Valet Tray
Pattern Name: No Engraving
The SEEDWAVE valet tray really impressed me with its sturdiness. The wood feels solid and well-crafted—there's no worry about cracking unless you decide to use it as a frisbee! The only minor issue I encountered was that my tray didn't sit perfectly flat on my nightstand at first. I noticed a slight warp in the middle, but that was easily fixed by adding stick-on rubber footers, which leveled out the tray nicely. Since then, I've continued to use it as my valet tray in the kitchen, and it's held up beautifully over time.
