- Geometric Simplicity: The art is defined by basic shapes, with human and animal figures formed by two inverted triangles connected at the tips, representing a balanced, minimalistic style.
- Monochromatic Palette: Traditionally, only white (rice paste mixed with gum and water) is used on a dark background of mud, cow dung, and red soil.
- Themes of Daily Life & Nature: Warli art commonly portrays agricultural activities, fishing, hunting, festivals, and the "Tree of Life," reflecting a close connection to the environment.
- Ritualistic Significance: Many paintings are centered on the Chauk (square) motif, such as Devchauk (god's enclosure) or Lagnachauk (marriage), representing rituals.
- Tarpa Dance: A central, recurring theme is the Tarpa dance, where dancers intertwine hands and circle around a Tarpa player, symbolizing the circle of life and community harmony.
- Freehand Technique: Paintings are drawn directly onto surfaces using a chewed bamboo stick, without preliminary sketching, providing a raw, authentic, and rhythmic quality.
