Week 22: Wiggle Room
The Wiggle Room mandala is one of a series of 21 asymmetry mandalas created over a 3-week period in autumn 2007. It consists of seven vertical wavy lines and twelve horizontal straight lines. My asymmetry mandalas come about by drawing in-the-moment inspired doodles.
Week 16: Star Power
Many of my mandalas are created by just putting pencil to paper, free of any preconceived idea or design. They seemed to create themselves on the paper before my eyes. For “Star Power” I started with a simple pattern in the middle and it just grew from there.

Week 11: Hidden in Plain View
On occasion I participate in EBSQ’s monthly online art shows (of which I’m a juried member). The theme for the February 2009 show was: “One Word Concept: Hidden”.

Week 6: Resurrection
Prior to 2005 I had created to King Tut inspired mandalas. By 2005 I wanted to create another one. This one is my interpretation of a amulet/necklace worn by King Tut and on display at the Cairo Museum. The center scarab in this case represents Tut being carried off to the afterlife in a boat. The cobras and other scarabs are there to protect him on his journey.
