Even the most elementary level Orissan paintings
have colour and vibrancy that are exemplary.The
tradition of wall painting is as old as time
in this ancient state.Pattachitras are painted
with bright colours and possess a charm peculiarly
their own.Their pictorial conceptions,unique
painting technique and line formations together
with colour schemes make them a remarkably original
art form that is distinct from any other school
of painting either in India or abroad.Palm leaf
paintings also belong to this category of Orissa
art where in traditional patta paintings are
done on palm leaves.
