These decorative paintings from India have a very strong religious tradition. They have a symmetrical composition as they are meant to be placed in house-shrines for meditation. Phad paintings are required to show a large number of objects in one scroll. The artists do this very skillfully by highlighting the basic motive of the painting and still showing all the ritualistic objects in Krishna lilas and number of soldiers in a battlefield. The use of monochrome areas in the background helps make a oil painting simple if necessary. Well organized, with bright colors bold outlines make this decorative Phad Paintings more appealing and attractive.

A traditional phad is approximately thirty feet long and five feet wide and the material used is local khadi or canvas and is made from special oil colors.
Primarily only vegetable colors were used, which remained fast and fresh for a long duration. Scarcity of these colors, however, would have ultimately led to a virtual stagnation of the craft, so the artists were compelled to make innovations.
Thus the usage of water-proof earthen colors evolved. These colors are made by pounding the natural earthen colors with gum, water and indigo.
