Woodland Mandalas (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780997224610)

Woodland Mandalas was conceived when I stumbled across the wonderful world of mandalas. I was attracted to their circular designs, parallel lines, attention to detail, and rich colors. Mandalas have evolved from religious symbols to art forms; in fact, mandala means "circle" or "center" and many people have used mandalas as a way to restore balance and enhance relaxation. Personally, it is the patterns and the symmetry that speak to my inner OCD tendencies; when I finish a mandala I have brought order and perfection to a small part of my world. I cherish that experience.

I decided upon a woodland theme because of our location in the mountains. We are blessed to see many of the animals and plants featured in this coloring book on a daily basis and I drew my inspiration from many of the patterns I see around me.

May these designs enrich your creative spirit and sooth your soul
