Mandala on a CD
I have several broken CDs and I thought it would be a good idea not to throw them to waste, but use as a base for little mandalas. Last week I started, and over the weekend finished the first one. Here is one progress shot (along with the mandala I am working on currently, you…

Mandala 5 February
This one I started last year, but got interrupted by Black Book month. So, it’s finished now: I am a little bit lazy to write these days, so there were no posts, but I will catch up next week…

Black Book January: Update #6
I have two new finished mandalas in my Black Book. This is one: I started it weeks ago and then my white pen gave up and I did not have the ink to refill it, so I had to leave it and start something else. This week I reconnected with my white ink, so here…

Black Book January: Update #6
Today we travelled to Slovenia, so there was no time for art at all in the morning, but I plan to squeeze some mandala time in the evening, after blogging and before Netflix. I can show you now a work in progress, the one I started yesterday: It was very cold in the house when…

Black Book January: Update #5
I have finished another mandala today: This one was quick and easy. I used Sakura gel metallic pens and white Uni Ball pen. I was sitting by the swimming pool and drawing. It was a great day: swimming, sauna, art and resting all day long. I really needed it. I also started some meditation…

I’ve been working on this one mandala for several days now. I used white posca pen for contours, and had a lot of trouble with it. It did not want to work and I started to shake it and then the paint came out of it on top of my drawing. I managed to clean…

Black Book January: Update #2
This morning I finished the mandala that took several days to do: There were large areas to color with color pencils and then doodles also took awhile. Color pencils make the surface waxy and slippery, so doodling with ink on top is not very easy. I made lots of mistakes, but I am rather…

Black Book January
I did this challenge last year in January, I was probably inspired by #carveDecember and wanted to try something new and do it for a whole month. I called it Black Book January. Even a friend from Instagram joined and did several pieces. The goal of the challenge is to create something on black background.…

Mandala: 25 December
I finished it several days ago but waited for some light to take a photo. It was raining in the morning but it cleared now so I grabbed my phone and made a shot. It was a nice Christmas Eve but a bit too much food, as usual. But that’s ok 😊 I hope you…
