october mandala

October is the "official" month
for breast cancer awareness.
(not that you can't be aware of that any other time ...)


So I drew this mandala for all the women (and a few men)

who have fought 

who are still fighting

and some who have eventually lost their fight

against 
breast cancer 



Life can be hard, but life is beautiful

  2. Hi Els, so nice that you found me, your mandela is fantastic and so are your work in your previous post, yes I work mostly in Mixed media now, and I take classes with Karen Ruane in embroidery, white on white where we use old embroideries and then add new embroideries to it, that is something I like to do very much.
