On June 22, MAG was pleased to have Sandra Fox come and teach us how to make our very own mandalas. We started by learning a lot of geometry, and finished by making some art. The mandala above is based on a trefoil (3 points), while the ones shown below are all based on “the tree of life.” We also learned how to make five-sided mandalas (very difficult!) and mandalas based on the medicine wheel. Everything begins with a circle! A very fun and informative workshop that gave us all new directions to explore in our art. — michele frantz
