When writing about your mandala, tell us things like...

  • Why did you create this mandala? What inspired you?
  • How did you choose the colors for your mandala?
  • How did you choose the patterns and shapes for your mandala?
  • Was the process of creating the mandala easy, difficult, rewarding, fun...?
  • Do you have any tips for people who would like to create their own mandalas?

You don't have to answer all of these questions, of course - they're just there to help you start the process of really diving in deep and thinking about the WHYs and HOWs of creating your own mandalas.

Making art is fun, but when you can start thinking critically about what you are doing and why, your connection to your artwork becomes much more deep and meaningful not only to yourself, but for others as well!

Putting the enigmatic artistic process into words helps us to better understand each other, enabling us to learn and grow from one another's artistic efforts!

So, what are you waiting for?
