The kolam below is with dots pattern 19 by 9 dots, then 11 by 1 on either side and 9 to 4 on either side.
The method to draw this through some photos of intermediate steps are given below. With these images it should be easy to get an idea as to how to draw this
These two images show how to proceed with the rangoli. The distance among the dots in the grid decides the size of the kolam.
I usually use a closely packed dot grid. Consequently, I can draw this even if there is very less space available.
When we draw a common rangoli in the street or if there is lot of space near the entrance, we can increase the distance among the dots to get a bigger version of the same kolam.
This can belong to an awesome rangoli designs with dots collection. When you draw it you can experience.
Rangoli tip - Since there is a possibility of colours spilling on the white design, it is preferable to draw with white powder after finishing adding of colours.
I have filled the background also with rangoli powder. Actually, it is a mixture of colour rangoli powder that I preserve when a kolam I draw for the rangoli website or video is erased.

One of the unique selling propositions of this art is that tools required are minimum. Just kola podi in a coconut shell, a courtyard alongwith our imagination and patience. When the rangoli is erased, there are no things to be disposed. The powder gets mixed with the sand outside.

In case of tiled floor, the white rangoli powder is just a smatter of grains less than a handful even in a big rangoli. I do not waste even that, I collect it when I fill them with colours for my rangoli blog,

| Chukki rangoli for competition with colours |
I have used this mixture in this kolam, it is brownish in colour and is used to fill the big empty spaces in the background. It would not be advisable to fill it with rangoli colour(s) purchased from the market because we need lots of it. We should be careful that the other colours chosen match with this brownish colour, this only proves that anything has a purpose and can serve a purpose! Oops! I do not want to venture into philosophy. Since it is relatively big rangoli we need patience.
An advantage of doing this is the background is relegated to the background (excuse the pun) and the white rangoli is visible clearly. This design is suitable for rangoli competition. Inspiration for birds kolam is from nature.
Of all the Indian birds the peacock is the most colourful. It has been a source of inspiration for Indians to add a dash of colour wherever possible. My children tell me that the birds like birds of paradise, rainbow lorikeet and macaw are also very colourful.
Anyway, colours make the world a better place to live in. The world in black and white is incomprehensible and unthinkable.
The rangoli drawn by me are nowhere close to nature in resplendent colour!
