Original artwork description:

The wedding party
24"x30"
Acrylic/mixed media on stretched canvas

The colourful and elaborate 'shamiyanas' (canopy) used in most India weddings was the inspiration behind this painting.

I have used some pieces of scrap book paper to add some decorative designs to the clothing as well as the background.
