Mandala 12 - flowers

Published:

Description

I decided to take some time for myself after I finished a couple of exams last week. Nothing like a little paper to help relax! My big candidacy exam is coming up soon though...and I'm terribly anxious about it! All my dreams have been about failing things lately. They are hilarious dreams, but this is getting ridiculous...


OKAY! I need some advice!
I think that the bright center in this mandala is a major focal point and really distracting. I went through six or seven versions of the center--small dark circles, small hollow circles, etc, but I hated them all! It is VERY difficult to make a circle that tiny that actually maintains the shape of a circle! SO! Does the empty center bother you? If so, what would you like to see there?
I think I'll just leave it as is. Thanks for the opinions!

I have the same struggle with the centers. This is not distracting though. I think it looks very clean and organic. Love it.
