Artists use natural dyes and depict Hindu mythology, nature, and daily life scenes. The paintings often feature bold outlines and geometric shapes, creating a unique and visually striking style. Madhubani art has gained international recognition for its cultural richness and storytelling through vivid visuals.

In Madhubani painting, it is often depicted as a symbol of abundance and harmony. The peacock, a graceful bird, represents beauty and prosperity. Together, they create a balanced and meaningful composition. The Kalpvriksh's branches often extend outward, symbolizing growth and life. The peacock, placed near the tree, adds elegance to the painting. This combination reflects nature's interconnectedness and spiritual themes in Indian folk art.
