        I started doing rangoli during my college days.I would reckon rangoli as the toughest medium I have worked with.It takes a lot of physical and mental strength to do it. I used to spend 7-9 hrs on my knees for an image that has to be done at one go.Any lapse in concentration or strong wind can ruin the day and we should always be expecting the uninvited guests -insects .
