Mandalas: I’m not too old to color

August 17, 2007

I brought an array of colored pens and a several pages of mandalas to our family reunion.

My parents, sisters, brothers-in-law and nephews joined me in coloring one afternoon. I find it both fun and meditative.

While I do have some talents, I’ve never considered art among them. But still, I enjoy seeing a mandala pattern emerge right before my eyes.

Here are some of my mandalas. You can get your own blank copies here.

Well not surprised that you have found another medium of expression. Looks so exciting, I want to try it too. My father was a cartoonist. I never inherited his talent. But this looks like it might assauge my longing to create artistically. They are scrumptious.Saundra

I love to draw and color and don’t take the time to enjoy it often enough. Thanks for the idea and permission to relax with a great assortment of colors. Coloring mandalas opens up my intuitive mind / right brain to all of the energy of the universe.
