Bengali New Year (1428) Greetings Card Design

Visual inspirations from left:  (1) Kantha embroidery motifs;  (2) Pata Chitras and Jamini Roy's paintings;  (3) Characters from 'Abol-Tabol' - legendary creations of Sukumar Ray- a genius Bengali poet, writer, satirist, illustrator, and a pioneer in printing technology (1887-1923), and the father of the renowned filmmaker Satyajit Ray;  (4) A sumptuous Bengali food platter highlighting certain traditional elements (e.g. 'Eelish' or Hilsa fish fry, 'Roshogolla' or round white spongy sweets, raw mango) and evoking nostalgia ('Kulo'- a cane-woven tray, old-school glass bottles of cola)
