Mandala 824

When the energy in our environments is chaotic and disruptive, it can create obstacles and confusion that can be limiting. Mandala 824 removes energies that cause obstacles and confusion, replacing them with high quality, smoothly flowing energy patterns.

I draw the mandalas by hand, and then cut them by hand from Haruki Unryu-shi paper. Then, I customize each mandala to meet the energy needs of the environment it will be displayed in.

Known for its durability, beauty, and longevity, washi (mulberry) paper has natural fiber inclusions which give the white paper a semi-translucent appearance. The background on Mandala 824 is a richly textured handmade, acid-free Gampi paper with a slight sheen.  Watch this interesting video to learn more about the traditional papermaking process. I have included a bamboo rod and hand-tied Lucky Knots as the preferred method to display the mandala.
