Thewa Art Pratapgarh Rajasthan
Theva comes from two words of the local dialect, ‘Tharna’ – meaning to hammer(to get thin foils of gold from very small quantity of the metal) and ‘Vada’ – meaning silver wire (which in the loop form makes the resting foundation for the main piece), both being the most important aspects of the art. While the forefathers of this art only made chests and boxes, today the masters of this skill have extended their expertise photo frames, mirrors, cufflinks, brooches, trays, plates and personal accessories like rings and necklaces which are adorned by men and women alike. The inspiration for this art comes from the Mogul miniature paintings involving traditional design subjects ranging from mythological genres to the more secular themes. Today the art has acquired a more unique stance than ever because the conventional style has been blended with a variety of techniques like Meenakari, diamond setting etc and a new palette of materials, which includes – beads, threads and others lending a contemporary idiom to the time-honoured practice.

Gangaur - Alluring art of Matheran - Bikaner - 2018
गणगौर उत्सव
राजस्थान और सीमावर्ती मध्य प्रदेश का वो त्यौहार जो हर उम्र की महिलाओ के लिए बहुत खास है। गणगौर उत्सव में महिलाएं 18 दिन तक गवर और ईसर की प्रतिमाओ का पूजन करती है। इन प्रतिमाओ को देख कर ऐसा लगता है मानों सच में मा पार्वती और शिव हमारे सामने बैठे हो। इन प्रतिमाओं को इतना सजीव रूप देने की कला केवल मथेरणो में ही है तभी तो इस कला को माथेरन कला कहा जाता है। और राजस्थान की इस कला को महात्मा समाज के परिवारों से बड़े ही सहज भाव से संभाल रखा है और पीढ़ी दर पीढ़ी इसे आगे बड़ा रहे है।

Gangaur-Festival
The festival of Gangaur is a festival which is very special to the women of all ages in Rajasthan and its neighbouring states. In this festival the idols of lord ishar and goddess Ganwar are idolized for a period of 18 days. Seeing these idols together feels like god shiva and goddess parvati are sitting next to you in a parsonified manner. Only Matherans know this art of parsonifying these idols that they look so lively therefore this art of making these idols is also known as Matheran art. This art of Rajasthan as always been preserved by the Mahatama Community very innately and they are passing this art to their next generations.
