Carpool Zen

"The car has become a secular sanctuary for the individual,
his shrine to the self, his mobile Walden Pond."
~Edward McDonagh

Hi Tammy,

What a gorgeous star to wish upon. This mandala is so pretty. I especially like the curls that you put into your work and the tiny dots are a lovely touch too. The way you have filled in the outside petals is so interesting and give such a feel of depth. Thanks for sharing this, it's really a greaat technique to think about trying. Sorry to be a Mrs Muddlehead, but I really don't understand the two above posts? Can you please explain.
Warmest best wishes,
Su

This is beautiful. It's been so long since I did one of these but this one is inspiring me to get back to drawing mandalas.

I love that quiet time in the carpool line! This is so pretty!

Su, Thank you for the kind words. As guessed, I do love swirls and ribbons and whimsical lines and have to remember to add them more often! I'm not sure I understand the "two above posts" question, but please let me know how I can help.

Kirstin, I hope you will try a mandala again, they are really a wonderful way to spend some time.

Eden, I usually listen to Dave Ramsey (financial stuff) while waiting at carpool, and I can draw too as long as the line doesn't start moving!

Tammy
