If I were to do something differently in the creation of my mandala, I would have not tried to accomplish a theme. While I was working on my mandala, I discovered that it was more enjoyable for me to draw without a plan and let the mandala come together naturally. The next time I do a mandala, I am going to put less pressure on myself to achieve a certain vision.
Something I valued about this project was the time to relax and focus on something that doesn’t cause any stress. I’ve been feeling a lot of pressure throughout the mandala project and it was nice to listen to music and just sit down and draw. I also valued getting to see a physical product at the end of the project.
In regards to our Reflections unit overarching question “Who am I?”, I learned that it’s important for me to let go and not put pressure on myself because of what others are doing.
