Ugadi chukkala muggulu easy birds rangoli

Few simple and small muggulu with chukkalu for the festival.  We can decorate with kaavi as we do for most festivals and functions.  Obviously such small rangolis can be drawn without dots also. The theme for this post is birds ( Pakshi )

The first muggu is using 5 by 3 dots pattern . Earlier I remember to have drawn this rangoli directly with colours.  Now I am sharing the white muggu with colour shading for those who may have missed the earlier post on this website.

The next muggu is with 6 by 6 chukkalu 

Now for this muggu design, only the white muggulu images have been shared with shading.  Birds need colour.  We can add colours for Ugadi festival celebration

 One of the common questions on Facebook and YouTube is how to draw curved lines effortlessly so as to get a uniform line without joints.  The wrist should be relaxed and not stiff.  

If you are looking for chukki rangoli simple for Ugadi or easy Ugadi rangoli designs maybe, you can try one of these.

Rangoli tip _ The two examples above show how shading enhances the beauty of the kolam whether done with white podi or colours. Though it makes the rangoli more beautiful (I use more because this art is already a beauty even if is left plain) shading should be done with care because it may smudge the original design.  In any case it is a good practice to draw the outline once again after completion of decorations inside in the form of shading.  It goes without saying this will take a few minutes, may be 5 to 10 minutes depending upon the size and intricacy.  Hence, it is preferable to add this technique if we have time or for important occasions or festivals.
