Lacey, lovely mandalas, Rachel. I, too, did an inordinate amount of mandala-doodling in school. best, sus
Rachel, you blow Cecily and me away! Gorgeous, creative, inventive... My fave is the architectural one but I love them all! Exquisite, just like you!
hey, rachel!
dare i say drawing a mandala feels like something right up your street? it all starts with pen drawing, don't it? i hadn't realised what with your techniques...
you could fill in a book of blank mandalas and sell your designs for people to colour them in! céline will be your first taker!
sweet and lovely, these are!
cheers for playing, rachel. so lovely to hear from you.

Rachel, your delicate mandala reminds me of beautiful lace work. Such patience you have.

I used to draw in classes too as a concentration method and I loved it. My best friends always demanded some drawing for them and I enjoyed very much doing it. Some teachers got upset because they thought I wasn't listening, but I was, and very focused indeed!
And then... I ended up studying fine arts at university and I draw everyday without teachers getting angry :)
Beautiful mandalas Rachel.
I admire how you got them so evenly and I love the last one with the houses - so cool!

Rachel your mandalas are balanced and even and with a fabulous quality of a relaxed and uneven and flowing 'line.' It's perfect. I have a feeling that you could produce millions of these and always come up with something different. Awesome work you create!!! Love this. Norma, xo
Wonderful,
dear Rachel!
These Mandals are really exquisite.
And, of course, as here already wished, a book of your mandalas would be wonderful! Maybe one could feel the same joy, lightness and inner peace when colour it as you've felt during drawing...
Love
Ariane.
I really like your drawings, especially the last one with the houses!
