Hi Friends,

With mixed emotions and some proud feelings, I would like to take this opportunity to announce that your website www.mithilapaintings.com has completed 3 years and I believe it has given artists of Mithila paintings a platform where people from all over the world can see their work and appreciate them and also they can buy if they like some paintings.

For the past 3 years, I have been continuously working towards achieving the goal of bringing Mithila paintings on global map and I am doing this all alone. I am committed to help Mithila paintings artists and for this I need great support from you. Let’s work together and make a mark !

If you are an artist, I would request you to please provide the following details to make the process simple:

1.  Your direct contact details, your city.

2.  What are the paintings and articles you can prepare?

3.  What are the materials you use?

4.  Approximate rates, it would be great if you could prepare a price catalogue and send me. (the cheapest price that you can afford, it will be difficult for me to help you selling paintings if rates are higher than market rates).

5.  If required how soon you can make paintings(e.g 100, 200 paintings) and deliver to us?

6.  If required can you take orders for paintings on walls, what are the terms & conditions you have for this?

7.  Send few good photos(clearly visible) of sample paintings with your profile details, so that I can create a free album for you on the website.

www.mithilapaintings.com is your own website and you will feel proud to say that it is the #1 website in this category, but the running cost and efforts for its maintenance is getting higher day by day but I have decided to keep this website free for artists. Only thing I need from you is your support and also spread the awareness about this website among other artists & people you know. I am always there with you, for any queries you may reach me anytime on 98800 27443.

People who are not a Mithila painting artists can still help by writing articles, referring artists to this website, updating with the news of related exhibitions and events, books, biography of artists and so on..

Good Luck & Warm Regards

Kislay
