More Kolam Patterns

South Indian floor drawing patterns are drawn either with an array of dots or without it. This page shows some examples of these patterns drawn using dots.


Shown above are two small kolam patterns. First pattern based on dots arranged in a rectangular array. This pattern can be repeated and is expandable endlessly. The pattern on the right side based on a triangular dot arrangement and forms a pattern of rotational symmetry.
