Nirmal

Nirmal painting originated in Nirmal town, situated in Ailabad district of A.P. These craftsmen use indigenous colours made from minerals, gum and herbs. The now familiar gold in Nirmal work is got from herbal juices. Over the years, Nirmal work has grown to meet new needs. The craftsmen today paint motifs in the style of the old Indian schools. Moghul miniatures are reproduced beautifully on soft white wood.
