The other day I was packing up some of my art stuff and came across this little unfinished piece... it was the second mandala I had ever created. I got frustrated with it and gave up. One of the spirals was messed up (reversed from the rest) and the grey "swishy" thingy in the background became a mess that I didn't have a clue what to do with. So I gave up on it, put it aside and forgot about it. Well two years later, I am finally inspired to do something with it. There's potential and I think it can be fixed no that I have a little more "know how" under my belt... it's not so bad!
I hope to show you some progress on this little neglected piece in the near future as I plan on using it to take breaks from the other two LARGE pieces I am working on...I think it might be a little diamond in the rough... you never know, we'll see! ;)

Off to work on the triptych again for a bit and call it a night :)
I like this. The swirls look like they are progressing from simple to more complex as it goes around. Very nice.
ReplyDeleteI can see potential in this mandala Cindy. The two opposing directions of the swirls remind me of yin and yang energies. I can't wait to see how it progresses.

Thanks for the comments on the swirl guys! Both ideas I actually never thought of and I will definitely play with them now that you mentioned it! Thanks for the added inspiration! :)
