Meet Our Aipan Artists 
“The Heart and Hands Behind Every Aipan”
Every Aipan tells a story – of a woman’s heart, heritage, and blessing.
Welcome to our Artist Corner, where the women of Uttarakhand breathe life into tradition with every sacred stroke.

Self-Learned Art, Rooted in Tradition
I’m Kiran from Ranikhet. Through observation and practice, I learned Aipan as a way to stay connected to tradition. For me, it is a simple yet meaningful expression of Kumaoni heritage, created with faith and devotion. Every design carries a story of culture, patience, and timeless rituals.
