Done!

Sakura Micron and Faber Castel Pitt pens, the golds are a Faber Castel Pitt gold, Sakura gold gelly roll, and Posca gold pens, the white is a Sakura gelly roll, the gemstone in the middle is done with chalk pencils (video of that coming soon for anyone who wants to see how to do it!).

Took ~7 hours. Roughly A4 size, on craft card.

$150 USD which includes worldwide shipping, but note post from South Africa to overseas is taking upwards of a month to arrive currently.

@welshpixie I was missing hand-drawn mandalas. This is simply... wow! Delicate, bright and strong at the same time. And the center "gemstone" - truly a gem. Congrats

@myscivoice Thank you! :D Mandalas are my 'main', I've been dabbling more with calligraphy and illumination for the past few months so it was good to get back into it :D

@welshpixie I used to make/paint mandalas using recycled materials, just for fun. I stopped a while back due to lack of time. But the little "bug" is still there. Who knows - maybe I'll give it after your inspiration 😉

@welshpixie Here is one. Straight from the digital attic 😜 . Not as professional as yours... still I loved doing them.

@myscivoice @welshpixie CDs are an underused medium! I bet it looks crazy when it catches sunlight!

@darabos @welshpixie I used to have a lot of them. When I started doing these my friends brought me even more 😁. So a lot of mandalas followed, of course 😄. For me it was more comfortable (and fun) to work in this large scale. And @welshpixie work gave me a "nudge" to go back at it. The light does bounce everywhere even from the ones that are painted 😁

Last but not least - the Green. It was actually the first I made.
