188 – Tie Dye Mandala

Mr. Tie Die, Carl E. McClellan, created this beautiful tie dyed Flower of Life mandala. What an achievement. It’s bold, it’s powerful and I love the use of rainbow colors. It begs the question (a question he’s most often asked)…How did he do that?

181 – Flock Mandala

British book binder, print maker, and artist, Louisa Boyd, created this mystical watercolour painting, entitled “Flock”, on the pages of her artist book, turning it into a delightfully delicate circular sculpture.

172 – Day of the Dead Kite Mandalas

How is it I’m just now finding out about the spectacular festival in Sumpango, Guatemala? Thank you, Sharon Owens … More

171 – Lady Sunbeam Mandala

Unless you are of a certain age, this contraption may be a bit foreign to you. In my youth, I used a similar device to this one; my ‘bonnet’ however was white instead of the cool colors of this one. Anyway, I decided to have a little fun with today’s MotD.

170 – Prawn Kimchi Noodle Mandala

I love the multiple representations of symmetrical and asymmetrical mandalas (food and plates) and spirals (prawns), all presented in a simple, elegant, asymmetrical way over an abstract background. While being a potential feast for the taste buds, it starts out as a feast for the eyes.

168 – Wagnalls Wheel Mandala

Artist Brian Dettmer carved out details in a set of encyclopedias and put them all together to form this delightful mandala-like piece of art. What would otherwise be an outdated set of books now becomes a visual merry-go-round of images that flash before us, giving us the world in pictures instead of words.

162 – Happy Sun Face Mandala

This delightful sun face and flowers watercolor painting is brought to you by Sharon Owens. Creativity and artistry run in her family.
