Mandala Art - the coloring process!
As an artist, my primary body of work is done in mandala style, using the circular form as a way to create a microcosm of vibrant color and intricate detail.
This video shows me working in my usual medium, which is pen on watercolor paper. I use Microns and Faber Castell pens. Due to the precision of my work, it takes a long time to color in large areas. Hence, time elapse is a good way to show how I do things!
