My Mandala Classes have been improved!
Learn to create mandalas full of pattern, depth and meaning.
The Mixed Media Mandala online class has been re-designed as 3 new classes. A deeper dive into mandala making and more affordable for you! All classes are now self-paced and lifetime access. Click images below to view each class outline. There is also a bundled price if you would like to dive deep into a mandala practice and explore mixed media.
I also have my *NEW* Botanical Mandala Classes available here.
We will explore the sacred circle in many forms including doodling, structured mandalas, journaling, paint, collage. molded and sacred symbol mark making.
We will look for inspiration in planetary patterns, sacred geometry, cymatics and nature to journal and explore what the mandala means to us personally. I dive deeply into all of these areas and you will see the world so differently after taking these classes!
At the end of the classes, not only will you be full of inspiration, you will have a beautiful journal full of studies, sketches and awakening imagery AND many finished unique mixed media pieces of art to hang on your own wall.
Lovely Testimonials
Brilliantly written, unbelievably thorough material. Well paced, anyone can work at their level and speed.
It has made me see mandala designs all around me. I now carry my camera everywhere to capture pictures of the ones I can use to develop.
Thank you so much again for the awesome course, I felt liberated and inspired and it meet my need to remember that I am more than ‘Mama’, and reignited my creative flame that so nourishes me.
Your videos are so easy to follow and you have given me the courage to find my own style and let self-judgement melt away. Thank you for introducing me to the wonders of sacred geometry….fascinating stuff! I highly recommend your course to anyone who thinks they are not an artist. Many blessing and gratitude for being a wonderful teacher.
I just want to thank you for an incredible class. I learned so much and am having so much fun creating Mandalas. thank you for an incredible class!!!!!
I loved all of it. And I enjoyed the way it was taught (thank you, Louise) starting with loose, free drawing and moving into mandalas of different materials – natural materials, paper, and of course I will add fabric and stitch to that. I now see mandalas everywhere.
I must say that you truly have such a soft way of teaching, that allows one to enter your beautiful space, world and home and feel as though you are right there with you. You share so much of your techniques with others, thank you. I am a better artist today because you have shared so much with me!
I knew from taking one of Louise’s other classes that we would look into various techniques, which is something I really wanted to explore. Also, the community and Louise’s energy make the class a really fun and welcoming environment.
Doing this course gave me the impetus to move out of my sketchbook and onto a “public” surface !!! So now my Mandalas are hung on my wall instead of just occupying pages.
If you love mandalas and meditative art forms, you will love this class and you will get limitless inspirational ideas for mandalas for years to come.
I loved how Louise had an air of permission about her, she worked quickly, not worrying about keeping in the lines or it being perfect, which was so freeing for me, and really allowed or invited me to be loose and relaxed rather than focusing on it ‘looking good’ or ‘getting it right’.
The class taught me to be a lot more free and confident about my creative abilities.
Don’t miss this opportunity to learn the mandala process, to step out of your creative safe zone and learn something new. I have learned so much from Louise and added to my already full mandala repertoire. She is an amazing guide on your personal mandala journey … A MUST TO EXPERIENCE!

Full Blue Moon / sturgeon moon in Aquarius – full moon mandala / dreamboard

July 2013 creative color challenge wrap up {indigo}
This month I decided to keep it simple with indigo in my color journal, so this is just one of the pages I created.

Monday Mandala #11- Sacred circles on the beach {with little helpers this week}
This weeks Mandala feels more like a sacred circle and rather tribal - I think it must be to do with the placement of stones and the sheer simpleness of these creations. It was ALOT of fun! I had some very keen little helpers with me who jumped at the chance...

June 2013 Creative Color Challenge wrap up {green}
It is a color I love to have around me, but creating in ‘just green’ did feel a little daunting I have to admit!I decided to listen to my green color meditation to really get into the moment of creating in green, from the heart chakra and the above is what emerged. I love it, so simple.
All about green {color love}
The color Green occupies more space in the visible spectrum than most of the other colors.
