Hoping to hear positive news from all concerned,I would love to find copies of writings texts papers related to Tamilnadu / south indian mural paintings and related history. (kalain valarchi - colours used, life of such art, promoted by who etc.,)
My knowledge is very limited right now, on this subject, as i did not get any formal education on our Art subjects.
