day 4

When I started my drawing this morning 
I was thinking of Tammy 
and how she said there was a moment of sitting still
required before starting.
(I told her it was the same with me ...)

I started with a square,
like a window
or something like a painting on the wall,
but then I made it into a
nine patch
...
There came a person,
who was looking through the window
or at the nine patch.
Then a bird
and another one,
Things, thoughts, streaming, flowing in the wind
(when I'm drawing like that I don't know where it all will end :
my hand has a mind of it's own)

Here is Pink Ribbon mandala number  four

"thoughts about nine"

(I called it ... )

Karisma colour pencils on fine watercolour paper (A5)
mandala 12 cm (5") in diameter

If you would like to have this original artwork
please send me an email to fiberrainbow@gmail.com
It costs  € 4, - (+ postage)

HA .....  FUNNY ...
right before I was starting to write this post
I looked at Jude Hill's blog
(like I always do when I start up the machine)
there was a new nine patch in indigo and white :
a new beginning in her new series "small journeys"

,,, hmmmm ... I might have picked up the vibes ...

An envelope came in the post with a new felted piece in RED
from Pauline of the felting exchange


With lots of slits and loops to hang it  ;-)

Thanks Pauline

  2. Hi Els, how are you ? I've been away down the South Coast just catching up on your blog. Is it getting cooler up at your end of the world weather warming up down here :) when I was away I bought a book called The Mandala Bible when I was looking at it in the book shop I thought of you and your mandalas I'm Hoping when I get some time on my hands I can do a mandala painting.
