NIGHTBLOOMING MANDALA 4 WITH TEXT

This is the layout I use for one of my notecards. This uses nightblooming cactus mandala 4 with the saying you see here. This one was censored by Zazzle when I tried to use it as a design for a postage stamp. They objected to the word God. So I am coming up with another saying which actually works rather well. The flower is nature's love offering.
The circle is life's symbol of completion.

As they say, necessity is the mother of invention.

I also use it as the December image on most of my 2010 calendars.

NIGHTBLOOMING MANDALA 4 WITH POEM

I use this one as part of my 2010 calendar designs. This is sort of my signature piece as it was the nightblooming cactus that got me started in this kind of art.

CALENDULA MANDALA 3

CALENDULA COMPOSITE 4

This is one of several calendula flower compositions I have. This one is paired with a quote of Gandhi's that speaks to me. I am always expanding my inventory and am happy to customize designs or do commission work.

BABAJI MANDALA CIRCLE FOR T SHIRT

Now I present my first mandala design. For the story behind its creation and how I got started in all this, see the first posts on my Brightlight Mandalas site.

I originally created this as a poster with an accompanying poem and called it "The Twelve Faces of Babaji". This version is a t shirt design that is available through Zazzle.

PANDA MUG

I have put many of my products on Zazzle. It is an online store which can turn an artist's digital creations into t shirts, mugs, poster, prints, cards, aprons, ties, postage stamps and more. I recommend that you check them out; it is an amazing service that they provide.

You may link to my Zazzle gallery from my parent blog. This makes a good t shirt design, but I also have it displayed as a mug. I use Zazzle for my poster size prints as I do not have the capacity to do those myself.

UPRIGHT PRAYER

Years ago, I painted the figure with the vortex against a simple background and wrote the short poem that goes with it. I always liked the concept, but was never happy with my execution. Once I learned to do the digital graphics, I went back to the concept and turned it into a mandala which I find very interesting and pleasing. I hope you enjoy it too. It is designed to look best as a poster which is true of all my mandala designs.

BRIGHTHAWK

This is a digital mandala based on a painting I did in acrylics years ago. I have paired it with a short poem which was originally a page and a half. You can get more detail on the Brightlight Mandala site. This is the design I use for the first mandala tutorial. In it, I take the reader through a step by step process of creating the mandala.

HEDGEHOG CACTUS COMPOSITE WITH POEM

I like to combine a poem, quote or saying with the image especially in creating cards. This is my own poem and expresses my appreciation for the beauty of cactus flowers. I offer a variety of backgrounds, fonts, sizes and combinations of text and image. This is one of my first cactus flower photos, but it is still a favorite.

PEACE MANDALA

This is one of my first mandalas, but it is still one of my favorites. While it is designed for poster size, I have also used it as a Christmas or Holiday card. For more information, see Brightlight Mandalas or Nightblooming Cards. Links are on the sidebar.
