A couple more both using symmetry painting and then 'glossy' finishes in post processing.

Two more -one using lined paths the other symmetry painting and some post processing on both.

Here is my first try at Hand Painted Mandalas.
Have a long way to go to reach the standard of most postings here.

Think I have "pushed the barrow" far enough now, so last one for the present anyway - custom temporary brush and symmetry painting.

Beautiful mandalas creations. After my next vacation, I'll try to do something, too.
very carefully presentations, P1937 and OMG.

OMG, beautiful. You never disappoint!

I liked the symmetry program and thought I would do another one but I could not get it to work tonight. I'm probably doing something simple wrong and too tired to catch it. Anyway, I just did one the regular way since I was in the mood to do a mandala!

There's some amazing work going on here.

P1937 - if that is your first try, I'm looking forward to seeing how your future work turns out. It's beautiful!

[P1937]

Thank you Issabella, Pat625 and Erisian.
I have a long way to go to get the results I want. You are all sooo good.
I will keep trying.

Pat and P1937 - nice work and good to see your posts here. Now, did I say I had finished with mandalas for a while ...

[Erisian]

Heh heh - I started this thread and then sat back and watched the fun. There are many beautiful pieces of work here that are a joy to see. Thank you all for joining in. My advice to those who have just started - I like your work more than you do but don't worry about being good, just focus on enjoying yourself.

but don't worry about being good, just focus on enjoying yourself.

OK with you

I enjoy with your creations!

Lovely work from everyone.

OMG your mandalas look great, and good enough to eat. I'm thinking the second in post #141 looks like iced cake and in post #150 the first like toffee and the second reminiscent of Jammie Dodgers

teapot, your mandala is nice

[oldmangrumpy]

Teapot - that's the best one here yet! Simple shapes, subtle colouring and very effective

My addiction continues even though I tried to quit ...

OMG
I have a crush for the 2nd and in addition the fish is my zodiac sign

[Pat625]

Teapot! Such a beautiful mandala. I agree with OMG!
