Mandalas

I've been getting away from collage lately. It seems as if I have been bitten by the mandala bug. I really can't tell you why, just that it has been all enveloping. I love the patterns and it becomes almost like an artful meditation for me. I start off with a template for the center circle and everything else from there just happens freehand. I have been experimenting with different pens and have recently started to add the white details to the drawings. I know that this is all a progressive exercise and have some ideas of where the next step will take me. We'll just have to see I guess...Wishing you love, peace & joy<3

Collages

I love to do collages. I find I work without a plan and it just seems to come together. The bottom collage with Frida is a self portrait. Everything depicted has a special meaning to me. For example, the parrot is my sun conure Pinot who really is the king of our house, thus the crown. The Create Art collage was done more recently and acts as a reminder to me to keep doing. I have been on a semi hiatus due to hand surgery on my dominant hand and although I have been working with my other hand it hasn't been the same. My fine motor skills are coming back slowly and I am looking forward to regaining my skills and being able to create much better art again in the future. We'll just have to see what develops. Until next time I wish you peace, love & joy
