158 – Tomaselli Mandala
I first learned of collage/painter Fred Tomaselli while at our local library. Spotting a mandala image on the cover of a large art book entitled “Fred Tomaselli” caught my eye. I checked it out and checked it out. His art is vibrant and powerful…and so different from anything I had seen before. He uses a variety of traditional art media along with conventional materials…like photos, vegetation and even pills.

142 – Boundaries Mandala
One of my favorite coloring friends used markers to color this version of my January 2015 Mandala of the Month, entitled “Boundaries.” I love the colors she used here…from the cool light blues to the dark warm greens and brown. The way she colored with them here shows that they all play well together…bringing us along the path to the end of the highlighted spiral.
