Jivya Soma Mashe, the artist in Thane district has played a great role in making the Warli paintings more popular.

In contrast, the square renders to be a human invention, indicating a sacred enclosure or a piece of land.

The central motif in each ritual painting is the square, known as the "chauk" or "chaukat", mostly of two types known as Devchauk and Lagnachauk.

The central motif in the ritual painting is surrounded by scenes portraying hunting, fishing, and farming, and trees and animals.

The Warli only paint with a white pigment made from a mixture of rice flour and water, with gum as a binder.

The lack of regular artistic activity explains the traditional tribal sense of style for their paintings.

[5] Coca-Cola India launched a campaign featuring Warli painting in order to highlight the ancient culture and represent a sense of togetherness.

The Manik Public School at Maniknagar, Karnataka, dedicated a large wall of their academic block to preserve Indian heritage by hosting India's largest Warli art painting.

[7] Warli Painting is traditional knowledge and cultural intellectual property preserved across generations.

Understanding the urgent need for intellectual property rights, the tribal non-governmental organization Adivasi Yuva Seva Sangh[8][9] helped to register Warli painting with a geographical indication under the intellectual property rights act.
