Book Bin Bookstore Window Project June 14 – July 5
[I’m 4 days behind in posting this]
Today I started the green sections. Today I had a set-back learning experience with my progress. The green paint I was using seemed like it was okay to use even if it was quite old; I was wrong…terribly wrong.
At first the paint when on easy enough however it became glumpy (yes that an official artist word) and the more paint I put on, the more it would clump together or come off the canvas. Word to the wise…throw out old paint even if it’s a high quality brand.
So what do you do? What do I do? That’s when I concede to the moment and pull out the tube of titanium white and paint over what I had spent an hour painting. “you gotta know when to fold ’em”
My Mission: connecting with our Inner Light in delightful, inspiring ways
For me, creating mandalas is more than just coloring pretty patterns in a circle. I do it because my spiritual evolution and creativity require it of me. My mandala designs come about within an active meditative state, connected with my higher self, my spiritual guides and nature spirits.
Together, we bring into form, mandala art the allows me to re-connect with my own inner peace and joy, letting me explore and expand my own creative spirit to however far and in whatever direction I want to take it.
As part of my own spiritual journey, I encourage, and hopefully inspire, others to explore their own creativity, to help them re-connect with their own inner peace and joy. As a means to that end, I make all of my mandalas available for people to color. Why should I have all the fun?
