“possession or display of great skill or technique”
I’ve been creating mandalas since 1999. As a matter of fact this week is exactly 25 years since our trip to Egypt which ignited my passion for creating my own mandalas. Over the years I’ve explored several styles of designs: symmetry, asymmetry, hyperbolic tessellation, Tibetan, and abstract.
Also, I’ve explored a variety of media to use in painting/coloring mandalas (color pencils, markers, pen and ink, acrylics, collage, watercolors, mixed media, digital). This year I plan to add more new-to-me media options as a way to unveil more ways to create mandalas.
I’d also like to explore creating 3D mandalas. So far I’ve only dabbled in it.
I’d like to think that I have great skill when it comes to mandalas and mandala designs and yet I feel the need to strive for even greater mastery.
How about you? Is mastery a core value for you?
btw…here’s what it looked like before:

About the 2024 Mandalas of the Day
Each day I will create and post a mandala inspired by one of 366 “value” words chosen randomly. The objective being to discover for myself which ones would best represent my core values…and by doing so, I hope it inspires you to determine your own.
