inspired styles

Part of my new line includes mandalas inspired by timeless ideas and rituals of spiritual societies. These pieces are almost like artistic impressions or representations of yantras (magic symbols), fire yagnas (sacrifices), sand mandalas made by Tibetan buddhists and tribal and pagan images of fire dancing, tribal gatherings, initiations and corroboree events.
These pieces are also aimed at the crystal children being born at this time in the world. You can read more about them here. Here are some of my favourites so far from this new line.
This one is called fire yagna. 2nd one is flower and reminiscent of sand mandala of monks.


This is Lotus and is similar to yantras for the cosmos.


This doesn't have a name yet, but is similar to the Tibetan wheel of fire.
