A deliberate return to pre-Muslim conventions is evident, particularly in the strong use of color and distorting treatment of figures (e.g. fish-shaped eyes, oversized heads). Other noteworthy characteristics of Deogarh painting include dreamy eyes, inflated bodies, very particular types of dress, brusquely painted forms, and a fondness for muddy colors, especially greens. Deogarh artists often created a sense of perspective in their miniature paintings by reducing the size of distant objects. ]]></note></mads>
