55 – Jackfruit Mandala

Up until February 7, 2015, I had yet to experience jackfruit. While participating in the Conscious Life Expo, in L.A. that fateful day, one of the food vendors offered vegetarian food. I was about to pass on them because I have trouble digesting tofu…thinking that that was the main ingredient for their Indian dish. Wrong! They use jackfruit. After a little bit of hesitancy, I opted to try it. Wow! Loved it!

54 – The Oscars Mandala

While watching the academy awards last night, I happened to notice the stage totally decorated in mandalas! For the remainder of the show, I found myself more intrigued with the set than the actual event. I particularly appreciated the golden clusters of mandalas that flanked the stage. Just stunning!

I came across the Art Therapy Spot blog site and found this particular post (July 2014) by licensed board-certified creative arts therapist, Sara Roizen entitled Mandala Journal Evolution and knew I had to showcase her and her art.
