Mandala : Lotus (detail) by danita clark
Watercolour, Art Pens, Iridescent acrylics, Metallic Pens & Embossed on canson paper
This is the detail of a large commissioned mandala, that i absolutely enjoyed creating for a lovely soul last year.
It has the centre lotus and the inter-twining of the gold and silver into spiral shapes, represent masculine /feminine.
Towards the outer (which is not seen here) it included the elements fire, water, air, earth (you can see part of the representation for fire at the top).
The metallic pens and paints are reflecting the light in the photo.
Thought this one would make a nice card here!

Thanks Claudia, it was a pleasure to paint for the client. This is the centre area of the mandala. It had aspects of fire, water, air and earth around this central lotus symbol.

It looks like a portion of a stained glass window! A superb depiction of the sacred lotus!
