The mandala project was a nice way to start out the Senior year because creating it was relatively easy and fun. It was very relaxing to create both the black and white and the colored mandalas, and I ended up really enjoying the colored one. The black and white was nice because I felt like I could add lots of details while still keeping it clean looking and orderly, but the colored mandala stands out more and I think that it is more interesting to look at overall. I tried to use lighter colors (oranges/yellows) for my lines and darker colors (reds/purples) for the fill colors to give good contrast and make everything stand out more.

Through this project I discovered my liking of patterns and repetition. I think that the black and white one really helped me discover what I enjoy and the colored one helped me improve and further enjoy making mandalas. I’ve also been somewhat stressed since the beginning of the year and I feel like this project helped me unwind. Overall, this project was very soothing for me and was a nice way to start Senior year.
