The other day I got a call from one of my favorite people on the planet. A former student and Buddhist Monk. It's time again for Maha Thingyan.
At his home he conducts a Buddhist Water Festival Ceremony. I went last year and had such a great experience. In an hour I'll be at it again!
No, I'm not Buddhist, but I am honored to be invited to their special ceremony, and I get so much out of their beliefs.
This particular monk and I have known one another for 3 years and he has been such a delight to me. I made him this mandala as an offering for the ceremony.
The background was fun to make...love the color scheme. Then it looked like this pre-shading:
But a little charcoal shading really makes it pop...
So I am headed out now, but please stop back to see pics from my day!
Happy Weekend!
