Star of Life Mandala



In creating this mandala, I liked the build up of the numerology: from one blank page, to the duality of white pencil on black paper, the introduction of the three primary colors, now adding the secondary, creating a six, just like the star of David shape in this exercise. I added three pencils to my mix and pondered the ways I have added new tools to my practice over the years, and how this has allowed for a finer refinement of tints and shadows, literally and metaphysically.
