This Digital Painting “Jaisalmer Desert Festival-5” done by Anil Sharma former Associate Art Director at India Today Magazine, Noida India. Jaisalmer Desert Festival is one of the most popular among all the festivals of Rajasthan; it’s the journey into the heart of the Rajasthan desert. The yellow sand of great Thar Desert attracts visitors from all over the world. The empty sand around Jaisalmer comes alive when Rajasthani folk performers like musicians, ballad singers, snake charmers, and puppeteers exhibit their traditional skills. The other high points of the festival are- camel dance, camel acrobatics, camel races, camel polo, matkaa race, competitions for the best decorated camel, tug- of-war between musclemen, a turban tying competition and a Mr. Desert contest.
