Dreamy Mandala - work in progress

I've been busy working on a new mandala painting which hopefully will be ready for the MK Open exhibition at Westbury Arts Centre later this year. 

Once the exhibition has finished I hope to donate the piece to the art collection at Arts for Health MK, a charity based in Milton Keynes who use arts and creativity to improve people's health and wellbeing.

Step 1: trace out lines using watercolour pencil and compass.

Step 2: start with white to map out some of the patterns.

Step 4: Filled in with blue and custard colours to enhance floral areas.

Step 5: Adding pink, purple plus more mustard.

 

Step 6: The finished 'Dreamy Mandala'.

Murals at Tesco, Wolverton

The murals are now up in the Tecso's precinct, they really uplift the space and bring it to life.
Locals had a lovely celebration of the work going up last weekend alongside the opening of pop up cafe, Cafe Zero.
