I've been working with mandalas lately, having taken workshops and done my own studies about them.
I created this one as a simple project, working with the number "7" and it's various meanings, and the colors that I responded to in relation to the ideas involved. I put daubs of paint on a canvas, and folded it into prescribed patterns, replicating the images 7 times. Colors mixed and blended, some remaining pure and glowing. This resulted in the image above, and is useful in meditation sessions. If you are new to the concept of mandalas, this is an easy project to get you started, and doesn't require geometry or measuring tools to accurately divide up your circle. Check your library or metaphysical store for books on mandalas, and you will find workbooks and even coloring books for those of you who wish to just get down to the meditative coloring exercises! Enjoy!
