Indian artist Sheela Devi employs the traditional techniques of Madhubani painting -- carefully applying ink and poster colors to a background of handmade paper -- to create this bold image of an elephant prepared to transport a monarch. Bursting with an array of contrasting colors and patterns, and expansively filling the frame, the work beautifully captures the stunning aesthetic of classical India.
