Hi everyone, here is part 2 of the lovely showcase of work. Just a small selection that came out of the Mixed Media Mandala class I taught earlier in the year. If you missed part 1 {doodles}, here it is. Here is part 3 also {canvas}

This journey is a beautiful progression from mandala doodles and loosening up to exploring paint, collage/other materials and then onto the Mixed Media Mandala Masterpiece where students create a final piece of artwork to hang on their wall.

So part 2 is all about collage and nature. During these lessons we explored different papers, shapes, combining with other materials. We also took ourselves outside to explore using nature in the mandala form. The creative muscles are really stretched during these lessons and everyone has so much fun exploring. Thanks so much all for your gorgeous artwork and putting your trust and exploration into the process.
