I originally used color pencils on this mandala back in 2005. While I did as much as I could at that time, it always felt like it needed more. Now 12 years later, it’s time for the upgrade. I do find it interesting that the predominate colors of this painting coincide with the predominate colors of last week’s Abstract Mandala #2 (Merry Go Round).
Even though I did this on paper, Mosaic requested that the upgrades be done with acrylic paints. Interesting combination. I suspect other media may be involved as I go through this week’s upgrades.
With what I painted today, I can already see a major improvement; it’s coming to life.

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?
