“I don’t think the goal is, ‘How big a star did you ever become?’ I think the goal is, ‘Were you able to express yourself?’ And if you’re able to say yes, in any field, you’ve won. If you paint, write, do mosaics, knit – if it’s solvingthat part of your brain saying, ‘I need to do this,’ you’ve won.” – Albert Brooks
“Live life as though nobody is watching and express yourself as though everyone is listening.” – Nelson Mandela
“Live to express, not to impress.” – Dare to Dream
Essentially, let our inner light shine, express it in our own unique style. When we allow ourselves to express freely, we give permission to others to freely express themselves. How amazing would that be?

btw…when looking at this mandala from another angle, you’ll see my playful expression of my shimmery metallic watercolors.
My Mission: connecting with our Inner Light in delightful, inspiring ways
For me, creating mandalas is more than just coloring pretty patterns in a circle. I do it because my spiritual evolution and creativity require it of me. My mandala designs come about within an active meditative state, connected with my higher self, my spiritual guides and nature spirits.
Together, we bring into form, mandala art the allows me to re-connect with my own inner peace and joy, letting me explore and expand my own creative spirit to however far and in whatever direction I want to take it.
As part of my own spiritual journey, I encourage, and hopefully inspire, others to explore their own creativity, to help them re-connect with their own inner peace and joy. As a means to that end, I make all of my mandalas available for people to color. Why should I have all the fun?
