Warli painting is a traditional tribal art form from
Maharashtra, India, characterized by simple geometric shapes—circles,
triangles, and squares—painted in white on mud-and-cow-dung walls. Key features
include daily life scenes (farming, hunting), the iconic Tarpa dance, and
a focus on nature, community, and fertility rather than mythological figures.
