Here is a painting of the famous deities Lord Jagannath, Lord Balabhadra and Godess Subhadra of Puri temple in patta chitra style.

Pattachitra is a traditional painting of Odisha, India.These paintings are based on Hindu Mythology and specially inspired by Lord Jagannatha and Vaishnava sect. All colours used in the Paintings are natural and paintings are made in old traditional way. Pattachitra style of painting is one of the oldest and most popular art forms of Odisha. The name Pattachitra has evolved from the Sanskrit words patta, meaning canvas, and chitra, meaning picture.

Normally earth colors are used for Patta Chitra style of paintings. I used Wter colors to get loe to that effect.
