Original Mandala designs 

The organic nature of mindful flow, combined with an intentional pursuit of making space sets the stage for these delicate freehand designs. They flourish from the center outward along a slow and steady breath, and they reveal themselves to me as if they were always there, willfully pressing against the canvas.

I typically begin a drawing with some idea of where I might want it to go, but ultimately the pieces evolve naturally with the circling repetition. Even with larger, intentionally planned geometric structures, my mindset and the meditative flow dictate how the piece unfolds beneath the pen. There are distinct elements of fidelity, persistence, commitment, and most importantly, patience when I embark on a new design. And this solitary, intimate practice takes me across the vast landscape of my own own mind until the countless hours of focused attention behind the pen result in the metiart you see now.
