Relaxation time - Drawing Mandalas
Hello friends of Steemit, this time I made a drawing related to the mandalas. Doing it is something very relaxing and satisfying because there is no order to create it, we just have to let the imagination fly. The process of making the mandalas is fun, because by doing them we meditate and harmonize our inner self with the outside, in the same way it happens when we color them, it is not necessary to know how to paint, just grab a color and let our inner artist flow.
Now I will proceed to describe the drawing process
Used materials
1-Sheet of white paper letter size
2- Compás
3-Pen 2H and HB
3- Eraser
4-Thin black marker
5-Red fine point marker
6- Colored pencils
7-Pastel Chalks
The first thing I did was take the sheet and with the help of the compass I made several circles, it is different points of the sheet, I preferred to make them in the upper central part and in the lower corners, because I wanted to write something in the center of the page.
I did the mandalas one by one, first I made the one on the top of the sheet.
With the circles I made with the compass, guide me to create lines, ovals, keys, dots among other figures
Then I proceeded to make the circles in the lower corners, first I made the circles of the two corners, the circles increase in size as they move further away from the corner.
After having inspired me to make the mandalas in pencil, I thought of a phrase that a teacher told me some time ago, and I captured it in the drawing.
It should be noted that I love letters and calligraphy and more if they are of different molds or types.
Later I began to highlight the whole drawing with the fine black point marker.
When I finished highlighting the entire drawing I took the erasure and erased all the lines of graphite.
Then what I did was to color the mandalas, the first mandala painted in two colors purple and blue, but with lighter shades of each. The second mandala is painted in orange, red and pink, also in different shades. And the last one is the color of several shades of green and yellow.
The drawing is almost ready, as I do not like the idea of leaving a lot of blank space, I took four pastel chalks that it has, one green, one vinotinto, another blue, and a yellow one. I started to place it near the corresponding mandala and the yellow one was thrown in the middle, that is, in the letters.
To the letters of the phrase I passed an edge with a red tip fine marker to give it more volume.
¡¡I hope you liked my drawing, we read in another post and in another drawing !!
