Peacock Sikku Kolam - Margazhi Special!

Peacock Sikku Kolam!

One of my most favourite kolam is this Peacock Sikku Kolam or dots kolam you can say.. I have drawn this beautiful Sikku Kolam, for last year Margazhi..

A very easy and beautiful Sikku Kolam.

We need to keep dots, 12 dots in the middle, then reduce it to 9-2 dots, reduce it to 8-2 dots, reduce it to 6-2 dots, reduce it to 4 dots. ( Straight dots)
Towards the down, reduce the dots to 10-2 dots, reduce it to 8-2 dots, again 11 dots, reduce it to 9 dots, reduce it to 7 dots, reduce to 4 dots. ( Straight dots)

Start your Sikku, from the top, as I always do.

For the eyes, I used Kaavi powder, and with sharp blue peak and given blue colour for the outline.
Hope you all like it!
