I really valued the experience of getting to do a simple relaxing project after getting back into school. It was a really good refresher on using Illustrator and Adobe After Effects. I also learned how to split and repeat patterns on Illustrator. Having the experiences of making both the monochrome and colored mandalas let me improve my skills in creating them.

I created my black and white mandala based off of traditional mehendi designs and foxes and Shinto gates. I took parts of my culture and weaved them together to make my Mandala. In the colored mandala I took inspiration from the outside, and created an autumn and leaf themed mandala. Related website
