The Dance by Jeff Hess

337 – The Dance Mandala

I present to you another extraordinary local (to me) artist, Jeff Hess, who creates thought provoking, experiential art such as this one in which he captures light, spots of color, and water in action forming an instant in time where we see many mandalas in the making…either going into, out of, or just right into a circular shape. What an amazing image!

Returning to Fairyland

336 – Jennifer’s Hummingbird Mandala

Continuing with the “showcasing local artists” theme, today I share with you this delightful acrylic painting by Corvallis artist and gallery owner, Jennifer Lommers. I love her whimsical poppies that shine with life and whimsy, welcoming the hummingbird home. This is one of my favorite paintings of Jennifer’s.

Wooden Orbs by Jaehyo Lee

333 – Wood Orb Mandalas

Korean artist, Jaehyo Lee, created these delightful wooden orbs from discarded wood and tree branches. He assembles various chunks of wood, burns and then carefully polishes them to create visual contrast and a smooth surface. With so many amazing pieces to choose from I decided on this one since today is day 333 in our 365 day calendar.
