The Mandala Lady > Mandala of the Week #10: Crystalite

I created this design as part of a 'Call To Artist' event for the 2004 da Vinci Days poster contest. The design started as an abstract image of a tree (or as others have described it: the Star Trek communicator pin the crew wear). I wanted to repeat that pattern 12 times, putting one behind the other and 30 degrees to the left. Similar to when you take a stack of napkins and twist down on them to fan them around. While this looks like a simple design, it was actually quite challenging to draw and color. The top few repetitions of the pattern can be easily seen; however the ones 'further behind' become more difficult to color because I had to imagine where the related sections were in order keep the design and colors straight. The message for this mandala is: "All life starts with one simple thought. Let me go where it leads me."
