Miniature paintings are delicate, small paintings done on paper, ivory panels, wooden tables, leather, marble, cloth and walls. A high degree of expertise is required and this art is carried out delicately with a very fine brush and is characteristic of intricate, colorful and rational impressions. The colors used are mainly derived from minerals, vegetables, precious stones, indigo, conch shells, gold and silver which are obtained through a laborious process.
This picture is done following the miniature painting style. I have created the background and copied the hunter and the boar from one of the miniature painting on the net.. You can view the original picture here
