The studio created a stunning custom Gond artwork depicting our family tree as a tree-of-life motif — the intricate dot-work and storytelling detail were extraordinary. It's now a cherished piece in our home.
We commissioned a custom Gond artwork featuring local wildlife for our new office space — the vibrant detailing and traditional technique were immaculate. The team was professional from the first briefing call to final delivery.
The studio designed a large-scale custom Gond piece perfectly matched to our living room's earthy colour palette — the calm precision they brought to every dot and line made the whole process effortless. It's the centrepiece our guests always admire.
Most tribal folk art gets flattened into a decorative motif somewhere along the way to a wall hanging. Gond art resists that. Every animal, tree, or figure is still built from the same dense dot-and-line patterning the Gond community of central India has used for generations, which means a genuine piece carries real technical depth even at a glance. This page covers what makes the form distinct, the subjects I paint on commission, exactly how the process runs, sizing and pricing, and how to commission a piece across Delhi NCR.
Gond art is a tribal folk painting tradition from the Gond community of central India, chiefly Madhya Pradesh, built by filling outlined subjects with dense patterns of dots, dashes, and fine lines instead of flat colour. Animals, trees, and mythological figures are the traditional subjects, rendered in bold colour with the surrounding texture carrying most of the visual weight. Remove the pattern and there's no image left — it's structural, not decorative.
That's what separates a genuine commissioned piece from the mass-produced Gond-style prints that circulate online. A real piece takes the time the pattern demands; a shortcut version fakes the texture with a printed dot overlay and loses the handmade irregularity that gives the original style its life.
Gond's bold colour and dense texture make it a genuine conversation piece rather than background decor. It suits rooms that want personality — a study, a reading corner, a statement wall in an otherwise neutral space — where a quieter, more traditional artwork would simply blend in.
It's also less commonly seen than Madhubani or Warli in most Delhi homes, which means a commissioned Gond piece reads as considered rather than default. If you want folk art on your wall that isn't the same style everyone else already has, this is the direction worth exploring.
The tradition centres on a handful of subject types, each suited to slightly different spaces and moods.
Tigers, elephants, deer, peacocks, and birds are classic Gond subjects, and they're where the dot-and-line technique shows off best — fur, feathers, and hide all translate naturally into pattern. These work well as single-subject statement pieces.
A tree filled with birds, animals, and layered pattern is one of the tradition's most recognisable compositions, and it scales beautifully to a larger canvas or mural. This subject suits a feature wall where you want one cohesive, detailed scene rather than a single figure.
Gond storytelling traditions carry figures and scenes from local folklore and mythology, offering more narrative depth for a client who wants a piece with a story behind it rather than a purely decorative subject.
For a genuinely large feature — an office reception, a double-height wall, a café — Gond patterning scales up remarkably well, since the dense texture holds visual interest at a distance the way a flatter style might not.
Here's exactly how a commission runs, start to finish:
Gond pieces are painted on canvas or board, and scale from a small accent piece to a full mural. Here's how the common sizes tend to be used:
| Piece size | Where it works | Good to know |
|---|---|---|
| Small (10–16 in) | Desk, gallery wall, gifting | Quick to make, easy to ship |
| Medium (20–30 in) | A study, reading corner, or hallway | The most-commissioned range |
| Large (36–48 in) | A living-room or office feature wall | Dense pattern reads well even at a distance |
| Mural (on-site) | Offices, cafés, large feature walls | Needs a site visit or detailed brief |
Canvas pieces are gallery-wrapped or floater-framed depending on preference; on-site murals are painted directly onto the wall with no framing needed. Ready-to-hang fixings are included on all canvas commissions.
A small piece can be ready within a week or two. Larger or more detailed work — a dense tree-of-life scene or a full mural — takes considerably longer, since the pattern is built section by section and can't be rushed without the texture looking uneven.
What moves the price:
Once your brief is understood, you get a firm figure before any work begins.
A commissioned Gond piece makes a distinctive gift precisely because it's less commonly seen — a housewarming gift that won't match three other pieces the recipient already owns, or a milestone gift with a genuine story behind the subject if you go the folklore route.
As decor, its strength is texture and colour density in a single confident piece, which does more visual work than several smaller items scattered across a wall. If you're drawn to a different folk form instead, custom mandala art offers a more geometric, meditative alternative with a very different visual language.
Gond on canvas is straightforward to maintain:
Commissions here are painted by a full-time team of practising artists working under the direct mentorship of folk-art fusion artist Rajni Dutta, from the studio in C.R. Park, South Delhi. Gond is taught and commissioned alongside Madhubani, Warli, Lippan, and mandala, treated as its own tradition rather than a generic "tribal art" catch-all.
Credibility matters when you're commissioning something meant to last, so worth knowing: the studio has been covered by Hindustan Times, Business Standard, ThePrint, and ANI, and has delivered creative work for organisations including Airbnb, Qualcomm, upGrad, and Shoppers Stop. The story behind the studio and its founder fills in the rest.
If you'd rather learn the technique yourself than commission a piece, our Gond art classes cover the same pattern-building method used in commissioned work, for anyone who wants to try building one of these pieces by hand.
Gond builds every subject entirely from dense dot-and-line patterning rather than flat colour or outline-and-fill technique, which is why the pattern itself carries the image — remove it and there's no picture left.
Wildlife and animal motifs, tree-of-life and nature scenes, folklore and mythological themes, and large murals for feature walls are all painted on commission, matched to your space and brief.
It depends on canvas or wall size, pattern density, subject complexity, and framing, so there's no single fixed price. A firm quote follows once your brief is reviewed.
A small piece can be ready within one to two weeks. Larger or heavily patterned work takes longer, since the dot-and-line texture is built section by section and can't be rushed.
Yes, for large feature walls in homes, offices, or cafés. On-site murals typically need a site visit or a detailed brief with wall measurements to plan the composition properly.
