"Each of us is part of the great mandala of creation, a mandala in the making,
a mandala that we can shape with our love and live with a smile."

Mandala Painting Workshop
Save the date....June 16, 2012 for this one day intensive mandala painting workshop. We will be teaching the basics of acrylic mandala painting on a 12" square canvas with a supplied simple pattern that will allow you to learn the techniques we employ so you can go on to make bigger, more complex mandalas in the future. You may bring a SIMPLE idea for your center, but I will supply a variety of center ideas if you have nothing. You will learn about transferring a pattern, painting, metal leaf application, dimensional painting, and applying genuine swarovski crystals for bling. We will begin at 9 a.m., break for lunch, and paint until we're finished....tentatively 5 p.m. but are leaving it open as we all have different painting speeds. Click on the flyer for registration details. Class size is limited.
Lapis Planet
- This personal mandala was completed on March 18, 2012. The mandala pattern was inspired by a design by my teacher Paul Huessenstamm, with changes incorporated along the way. My client wanted blues and browns, is a very busy woman and I think she wanted something grounding and soothing. It was very calming for me to paint and I fell in love with these colors. 20" square, acrylic on canvas.
