Mandalas
November 1, 2008
Circular
designs, often geometric, are found in cultures around the world, many of which
revere the circle as a powerful symbol. Mandala is a Sanskrit word for
“Magic Circle.” Their creation has been a part of human spiritual practice for
thousands of years.
The circle is merely a place to begin; it should not be permitted
to limit one’s imagination. Allowing oneself the freedom to remember there is
no right way to do this project is one key to allowing spiritual insight to
emerge.

Painting Prayers
April 4, 2009
What might
a prayer look like if it were painted. Would it include words or not? What
images might it offer to God? Perhaps it would be an array of color in no
particular pattern. The only limit is your imagination!
