Kalamkari is an ancient style of hand painting done on cotton or silk fabric with a tamarind pen using natural dyes. The word Kalamkari is derived from a Persian word where ‘kalam’ means pen and ‘kari’ refers to craftsmanship.


In Andhra Pradesh, both the Machilipatnam and Srikalahasti village are recognized as major centers for Kalamkari painting. In the Machilipatnam style of Kalamkari, motifs are essentially printed with hand-carved traditional blocks with intricate detailing painted by hands.

On the other hand, Srikalahasti style of painting draws inspiration from the Hindu mythology stories and folklore. It richly displayed episodes from the Puranas, Mahabharata, Ramayana and other Mythological stories for their themes painted in the panels with a script running along the border. The subjects chosen to paint were restricted to Gods such as Krishna, Brahma, Ganesha, Durga, Lakshmi, Rama, Shiva and Parvathi.



Kalamkari is involves 23 tedious steps of dyeing, bleaching, hand painting, block printing, starching, cleaning and more. Motifs drawn in Kalamkari spans from flowers, peacock, swans, to divine characters of Hindu epics like Mahabharata and Ramayana. Nowadays, this art is primarily done to create Kalamkari sarees.

Kalamkari sarees are used the colors like indigo, mustard, rust, black and green. Natural dyes used to paint colors in Kalamkari saris.
