Madhubani Painting Classes for Kids in Jayanagar, Bangalore
Madhubani, taught with its rules intact
Madhubani is not a decorative style you can approximate. It has rules — the double outline, the absence of empty space, the specific motifs for fish, bamboo, sun and the kohbar marriage panel, each carrying a meaning. Taught properly it is one of the best line-discipline exercises a child can do, and it comes with several centuries of Mithila behind it.

Madhubani, taught with its rules intact
Search results are full of "Madhubani for kids" worksheets that are really colouring pages with a border. We teach the actual grammar of the form: how the fill patterns work, why the space is filled, what each motif means, and how a panel is composed. Children finish able to make a Madhubani painting, not a picture that resembles one.
The real grammar of the form, motif by motif
Exceptional line control, the by-product of all that fill work
The Mithila stories and meanings behind each motif
Patience and sustained attention, unavoidably
Natural-pigment palette explained, then worked in poster colour
A finished panel worth framing, not a worksheet
Batch timings for Jayanagar
Live classes on IST, scheduled around your week rather than ours.
Weekday 5:30 to 8:00 PM IST, built around Jayanagar school hours, plus weekend morning batches. Our offline Arts & Painting batches also run here in Jayanagar, so this is the one area where a family can choose a room instead of a screen.
Jayanagar is one of our two strongest catchments. Families come from every block, and a fair number are households where an older generation lives in the same house and takes an active interest in what the child is learning.
What your child walks away able to do
Composing an original Madhubani panel unaided
Clean double-outline and dense fill technique

We place your child in a batch built for IST. Weekday 5:30 to 8:00 PM IST, built around Jayanagar school hours, plus weekend morning batches.
Madhubani Painting Classes for Kids for families in Jayanagar
Jayanagar is one of Bengaluru’s oldest planned neighbourhoods, laid out in numbered blocks and still one of the most tradition-minded parts of the city. It is the kind of place where a child growing up with shlokas is entirely normal, and where families come to us asking for exactly that.
Jayanagar is a straight run north from our base off Kanakapura Road, which is why so many of our earliest families came from these blocks.
