DRAWING MANDALAS

Jackie Flam

The project that I have chosen to do as my final project is making my own mandala drawings. The idea behind this project was to document my past two weeks, in one drawing per week, as mandala drawings. Each drawing that I did gave off a very different vibe, as the first one used dark colors and more geometric shapes, while the second one used bright or pastel colors and more organic shapes. The first week’s drawing represented a stressful and overwhelming week with regards to the pandemic as well as my personal school work. The second week’s drawing represents an easier workload and a few pieces of good news globally regarding the pandemic. I chose this project because I have been drawing designs like these for as long as I can remember, and it has always helped to calm me down, which is what it did when I completed these drawings this time around.
