Hello and welcome to My Mithila Paintings Gallery!

I come from Madhubani in Bihar, India. a region corresponding the ancient kingdom of Mithila during in epic times. As an artistically inclined girl, I learnt this art form from the elders of my family. I commenced my work on professional lines in 1984. Also, in 2002, one of my paintings was presented to Sehba Musharraf, wife of Pakistan's president at the time, Parvez Musharraf. In 2005, more of my paintings were selected to be displayed at the Prime Minister's office, as well as the Finance Ministry's office. Also, In 2015, Prime Minister Narendra Modi gives one of my paintings as a gift to the Lord Mayor of Hannover, Stefan Schostok, in Hannover, Germany.
