Anamika Kumari is a very young school student who lives in Madhubani. She is among the most recognized artists in Madhubani regions who has several awards to her credit. She started painting when she was 9 years old and h er expertise lies in painting Madhubani Lokchitra style in natural colors. Though from a scheduled tribe, she is committed to take the Madhubani painting tradition forward in her own unique way. Most of her artworks are inspired by Lord Krishna. Madhubani Lokchitra is the human painting style where inspiration is taken from village scenes and t he sacred texts of Hindu mythologies. The coloring scheme here is of two styles - Kachni (hatching) where a limited color palette is adopted to fill the painting with delicate fine lines and Bharni (shading) where solid colors are used to shade and fill in the image. Earlier, artists from the Brahmin and Kayashth class represented this style, however, this distinction has now blurred and caste is no more a constraint for creativity.
