Before delivering over 800 pounds of donated food to the Foodbank of Santa Barbara, the Graphics Design class of the Garden Street Academy, who sponsored the food drive, put their creative skills together and built this rather unique version of the Yin Yang symbol using the collected canned food.
How cool is that! While individually it may look like the cans are off a bit, color-wise, however, collectively, they work beautifully.
Inspiration For Today
The GSA Graphics Design students remind us that creativity is more than just painting a pretty picture or sculpting the perfect statue…sometimes, it’s taking what we already have on hand and coming up with a new form of expressing a very old and traditional design.
Happy Coloring!

My Mission: awakening our Creative Spirit 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?
