Reading 3Matra chart

Varnamala charts for a child learning to read Hindi in Devanagari, for a nursery wall or a home study corner. One shows the swar, the vowels, each with a small picture word. One shows the vyanjan, the consonants in rows. One shows the matra signs on ka, so a child sees how each vowel sign changes the sound. You can also type a twist, such as with animals, and the charts are drawn to that request.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
