I love creating these pieces of artwork. It brings me into the now at the same time they help me to heal and express myself in a creative fashion. I love everything about them. I love the geometry and the symbolism that are in every piece. They truly have meaning to me and to many others who find themselves fascinated by this art form.The mandalas I create are a direct result of my ongoing spiritual journey.
So, as a result of this I will posting my mandalas along with the story behind them as a kind of journal of self-discovery.
