Connection to Water – A Month for Mandalas
December 12th, 2015
A Month for Mandalas, session two
, which ended a few weeks ago, was about connection to nature’s elements. Part of the session is actual connection and merging of mandalas with the elements. Here are the mandalas honoring and becoming one with water.
Christine Torlina Water Mandala
These mandalas were created to become one with a body of water. The papers are rice paper and 100% recycled cotton paper. The paints and ink are made of beets, tumeric, spirulina and walnuts. Bees wax crayon give more color.
The two mandalas above were created in my studio. Christine let her mandala merge with the stream at her country home.
My friends Kelly and Hilary joined me for a late afternoon mandala creation and connection with water at a nearby pond.
We mixed the natural colors with water.
Kelly Larson’s sunset mandala.
Mandalas and prayers soon to merge with water.
The sunset and water ready for mandala connection.
As the sun faded, the mandalas slowly sunk to the bottom of the pond, honoring water and merging with it.
