On our first week back at school we learned about Manadala art.
The word mandala literally translates to circle in Sanskrit. Each circle in a mandala also holds its own symbolism. The outermost circle represents a ring of fire that prevents impurities from entering. The next circle represents diamonds.
First we had to design a mandala pattern of our choice in our art book, then we got to go outside and replicate it onto the courts and then we had to do square of 75cm by 75cm then we just carried on with our art work, we used white chalk for the outline. Once we had done that we got to use chalk in bright colours colours.
I really enjoyed doing my Mandala art work.
Thanks for reading my blog about Mandala art work, bye Bloggers :) .

ReplyDeleteKia ora Nerys. Well done to explain what mandala means. I liked your information about the size, colours and symbols. Could you include a picture of your mandala? Thanks for sharing your awesome blog.
