Aipan, or Aepan is a form of line art which originated in Kumaon region of Uttarakhand. Legend has it that this art form was found on many rocks and walls of caves deep into the Himalayan jungles that are centuries old. It is traditionally a form of rangoli art drawn against a geru (brown) background with rice paste. However, natives of Uttarakhand these days proudly sport this art form on t-shirts, wall hangings and notebook covers. Aipan designs are generally related to nature or religious symbols. For instance, the cover of this notebook depicts a tree by the side of a river with lofty Himalayan mountains in the background
