The Warli wedding painting that Warli women make for marriages, for a wedding wall, a card or a gift. The nine pictures show the chauk with the mother goddess Palaghata at its centre, the couple riding a horse under a canopy, and a feast with guests dancing in lines. Each comes as white on mud-wall red, white on clean canvas, or white on black. Type a direction such as Ganesh or palki, and the figures carry it.

Frequently asked questions

What do the nine pictures show?
Three wedding scenes: the chauk with the goddess at its centre, the couple on horseback with musicians, and the feast with dancers and cooking pots.
How do the three grounds differ?
The mud-wall version is white rice paste on earth red, the canvas version is crisp white on flat terracotta, and the black version is white chalk lines on black paper.
Can I ask for a different wedding scene?
Yes. Type the change as a direction, such as Ganesh or wedding card. It is a request for that look, not a promised result.

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.
