Art always makes everything better. Painting an art that is more related to the people of Kerala like the kathakali face which is their traditional dance form and sticking it on the wall brings more attraction. Things like Kalari, and coconut trees can be painted, and using them as wallpapers around will add more details to the roots of Kerala and Onam.
