The beauty of this type of kolam is drawing the curved lines that move around the dots gracefully with neat lines and curved lines. We should draw the entire kolam with confidence to get beautiful designs. The secret is very simple. It is just practice. It must be cliche but that is the truth. Practising many kolams will make us better and better in this art. Practising the same kolam on a notebook with pen or pencil several times or with a chalk piece on floor will increase our confidence in drawing the design because they are extremely tricky most times. The more confident we are with the design the more beautiful our lines will be. The number of breaks in the lines should also be minimum
Usually drawn with white kola podi , I have tried with colours and patterns with pencil in this blog post.
