You know, that reminds me of a Mandala. They're always so beautiful. Your ability to create such fantastic artwork is very cool. I create with words, but we both have the ability to give people something special that will enjoy.

Keep it going.

As everyone else has said - these are amazing, and please keep sharing!
I wish I had this talent!

Yes, I have been looking into mandalas recently. The creation of these is very time consuming and it is a meditative process for me, so spot on.

I had the honor of watching one being created. Okay, it wasn't in person, but they had a web camera set up to capture the creation.

Just watching from the planning of the design on a table, to the actual creation. It's fantastic to watch. I just wish I could find the archived video.

Time to show whats been taking up my craft time for the last couple weeks. Its final draw weight is 40 pounds.

i've been present during the making of a mandala...i even managed to get pictures on my old phone of it...posted it somewhere in the forums ages ago(it's somewhere in the buddhism forums)...i've also made bows, forged a sword, done various other carvings, draw, write...etc...

artistic endeavors are great for meditation...it's just you and the work...
