I tried alternating the shapes of the objects to make it look more interesting into different shapes on the mandala. One struggle I had was not knowing what to draw in for blank spaces and including shapes that represent my core values. I am most proud of eventually finding and including some of my essence objects and finishing with a result I am satisfied with. I will use the ideas I learned on this project in the future projects by contributing my creativity and my core values into my\u00a0art\u00a0work. This project helped me understand better about the other mandala arts made by other\u00a0artists. Previously, I did not think deeply about what essence quality the\u00a0artist\u00a0might have incorporated into their\u00a0art\u00a0work, but after making my own mandala, I now see other\u00a0art\u00a0works more thoroughly in terms of details and messages they\u2019re trying to convey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Yoon_Tae-Mandala-AE-Screenshot.png\" rel=\"fancybox\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Yoon_Tae-Mandala-AE-Screenshot-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-251\" width=\"819\" height=\"461\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Yoon_Tae-Mandala-AE-Screenshot-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Yoon_Tae-Mandala-AE-Screenshot-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Yoon_Tae-Mandala-AE-Screenshot-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Yoon_Tae-Mandala-AE-Screenshot-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Yoon_Tae-Mandala-AE-Screenshot-2048x1152.png 2048w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Yoon_Tae-Mandala-AE-Screenshot-850x478.png 850w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 819px) 100vw, 819px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">After Effects Interface<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Colored Mandala<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"beforeAfter\">\n\t<div id=\"mandala1\">\n\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img2020before\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/TaeY-Black-White-Mandala.jpg\n\" alt=\"Black and White mandala\">\n\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img2020after\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/TaeY-Colored-Mandala.jpg&quot;\" alt=\"Colored mandala\">\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I was inspired by pastel colors for this project. While working on this colored mandala, I had a lot of technical difficulties with Adobe Illustrator. Especially because it was my first time using colors and brush tools in Adobe Illustrator application. I overcame this challenge and eventually finished the project with a satisfying result by trying my best to stay patient and taking time to get through it. It was difficult but also fun to see my mandala getting filled with pretty colors. I am proud of using different tons of colors and gradation of the colors.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Yoon-Tae-Mandala-Template.png\" rel=\"fancybox\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Yoon-Tae-Mandala-Template-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-249\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Yoon-Tae-Mandala-Template-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Yoon-Tae-Mandala-Template-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Yoon-Tae-Mandala-Template-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Yoon-Tae-Mandala-Template-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Yoon-Tae-Mandala-Template-2048x1152.png 2048w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Yoon-Tae-Mandala-Template-850x478.png 850w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Illustrator Interface<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Engraved Mandala<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/TaeY.jpg\" rel=\"fancybox\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/TaeY-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-206\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/TaeY-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/TaeY-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/TaeY-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/TaeY-850x567.jpg 850w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/TaeY.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I am proud to see my mandala design laser engraved on an acrylic as I envisioned. I loved the different LED colors that shone on the engraved mandala. I named this piece \u201cMoonlight Maze\u201d because one of my top essence objects that I think has a deep connection to me is the moon, and I thought my mandala somewhat looks like a maze. This title seemed like a perfect match as I thought the LED light could be seen as the moonlight. I am very happy with my final result and I hope it gives inspiration to others as well.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Yoon_Tae-Engraved-Mandala-Photoshop.png\" rel=\"fancybox\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Yoon_Tae-Engraved-Mandala-Photoshop-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-250\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Yoon_Tae-Engraved-Mandala-Photoshop-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Yoon_Tae-Engraved-Mandala-Photoshop-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Yoon_Tae-Engraved-Mandala-Photoshop-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Yoon_Tae-Engraved-Mandala-Photoshop-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Yoon_Tae-Engraved-Mandala-Photoshop-2048x1152.png 2048w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~TaeY\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Yoon_Tae-Engraved-Mandala-Photoshop-850x478.png 850w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photoshop Interface<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Black &amp; White Mandala I was inspired by my favorite objects such as the moon, stars, butterflies, snowflakes, and cats.
