Mandala 3

I finally put my Christmas decorations up today. I wasn't going to bother this year, but now that I have, I'm glad. There's nothing more joy-giving than twinkling lights and tinsel!
One last mandala. They are quite relaxing, so if you get a chance to learn, I would thoughly recommend it

Mandala 2

  Here is my second mandala from Guadalupe's class. This palette of red green and yellow is almost the opposite of what I usually use, so I'm making a conscious effort to break out of my norm and play with different combinations.
  I must also add that I am really loving these Inktense  watercolours. They blend quite well and you can also layer them without reactivating a previous layer. Thank you to my good friend Marta for recommending them to me.
  What I also like about these mandalas is that you finish painting and then it's time to doodle, a very enjoyable past time! (I like how my small and large circles ended up looking like lace around the inner hexagon)

Mandala


If you pop over to the Willowing Ning site you will find a lovely, free class run by Guadalupe. Her delightful Mandalas are so relaxing to do, I just love them!
This is my first attempt and I just can't wait to do more. I think they will be a great little kick-starter when I'm feeling blocked
