Another Mandala

This was my first Mandala for Twinks class. Very hard to keep things straight when you are drawing them freehand. None the less, I love how these drawings just evolve and seems almost like meditation when drawing them. Interesting to see the shapes, colors and design the brain comes up with.

Mandala done for Dion Dior's Mastering Twinks watercolor class. Such a wonderful class and Twinkling H2Os are the coolest watercolors ever. Colors are shimmery, vibrant and out of this world. Dion's class is here: http://www.diondior.com/p/mastering-twinks-i-twinkling-discoveries.html

This painting is my work from taking The Red Scarf Portrait class taught by Jane Spakowsky at The Trodden Path: http://thetroddenpath.ning.com/group/the-red-scarf-portrait 
 
I highly recommend taking this class. Jane is a fantastic teacher. You will learn so much!
