Adorable Peacock Gond Art Acrylic Painting on Paper

In this acrylic painting on paper, Durgabai Vyam captures the majestic presence of two peacocks perched on a stem, a theme deeply rooted in Gond art—a traditional tribal art form from Madhya Pradesh, India. The peacocks, symbols of beauty and grace, are intricately embellished with vibrant colors and patterns, reflecting the harmonious relationship between animals and nature in Gond mythology. Durgabai Vyam, born in 1973 in Barbaspur, Madhya Pradesh, is a distinguished artist renowned for her contributions to Gond painting. She began her artistic journey at the age of six, learning the art of digna from her mother—a ritual of painting geometric patterns during weddings and harvest festivals. Her early works were well-received within her community. Over the years, Durgabai has created paintings for various publications and exhibited her works both nationally and internationally. In 2022, she was honored with the Padma Shri, India's fourth-highest civilian award, recognizing her exceptional contributions to the arts.
