Drawing mandalas can be a type of therapeutic art form and can help well-being and reduce anxiety. The design is usually symmetrical, radiating from the center of a circle, which is what you will learn to do in this class. However, I will also show examples of what else you can do with the basic shapes and structure of the mandala, or “circle.”
After showing you the basics of how to construct a mandala, we will spend time going over the primary designs and shapes, before jumping into drawing your own circular piece of art.
Each student will receive a basic kit you will take home to continue your meditative art journey.
Note: The art of the mandala has been around since the 4th century primarily in Tibet, India, Nepal, China and Japan. Buddhists use the mandala as a spiritual and ritual symbol – often creating sand mandalas that are then destroyed in a ceremony.
