On July 31, 2015 we experienced a second full moon in one month…called a blue moon. Washington photographer Tim Durkan capture this gorgeous shot of that very blue moon next to Seattle’s Space Needle.
I love how this photo captures both human-made and organic-made mandalas…and how they can easily share the same spotlight. It’s also an intriguing example perspective and illusion.
Years ago I went up the Space Needle…what a ride…what a view…luckily the weather cooperated that day. I highly recommend the visit. For those with height issues…it may prove to be a bit daunting, especially the ride up/down since the elevator is on the outside and you can see out through its windows as you go.

Today’s MotD inspires us to play with mixed media when creating mandalas…it can make the result a lot more interesting.
Happy Coloring!

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?
