The other day I started playing around with the design of this blog, and once again was unable to return to its previous look, so hence it new look. I actually like it better now, it feels more airy and open. So hence welcome to the new look of this page. Blogger has some new features, and I am eventually going to try to add some extra pages. But this is enough for now. All this technology is too much for me, and I need to take breaks from the computer.
One of the ways I have been retreating and renewing myself, is by the ongoing work on the mandala that I began at our Summer Solstice Mandala retreat. I have decided to share its process, from the beginning drawing to the place I am at right now. It is now completed yet, but getting closer.
Here is the beginning drawing.
With the scale of light being developed.
Color, color and more color.
This is where I stopped drawing at last evening. I wish I had left more black, but I seem to have a tendency to fill in all the spaces. That is something I keep reminding myself to work on, not only in my mandalas, but also in my life. Creating these images, always bring up a metaphor for me, that guides me on my personal growth issues and process. This mandala is all about honoring, health, growth, new directions and beginnings, as well as loving all the sprouting seeds in my life. I will post the finished mandala another time.
