Teapot - thanks for your comment. Your circular wire/metal flowers is great, very original :clap

Beautiful OMG !
It looks like there is a light shining behind the mandala.

Teapot, what a nice brooch

Sallyanne, I love #451

OMG, you know I'm not a fan of these "artifacts", but your last mandala is really really wonderful!
It's not only a technical creation, it "speaks" to those who look at it.
(BTW, my late but sincere congratulations for your new role).

Thank you for your comments Pat, OMG and Ella.

OMG, outstanding mandala, it's mesmerising and I love the back lighting :yes

Thought I'd try another one, not completely different because I still used the Hand painted symmetry method
Made a brush - My name (what else!) Put Pat in the middle because if I remember correctly she inspired Tin to make a script for mandalas using your name or another word.
Then I coloured it with a pattern

Make that in copper, teapot and it would make a good hot plate/pot stand

Ella, Diego and Teapot - thank you for your comments.

This one started out as a mandala and ended up as a silver platter.

Beautiful glassy and metal mandalas, OMG. :paint

It's a long time since I did a few ones. I did one today to add to the thread.

Thank you teapot. I really learn from OMG. He is a Master treating about glass, metal and wood. :hi5

Issabella. I want to see more from you - those are really beautiful. :jumpclap

Issabella - thank you but I think we all learn from each other, and your last two neat images are a good example. They made me think about flowers in a mandala, so here is one made with flower brushes from photos of Australian native flowers called Eremophila.

It is always so beautiful, surprising and varied.

Thanks Erisian and OMG for your comments. I enjoy creating mandalas.

Issabella - beautiful flowery, glassy mandalas. They should be the centre piece of a stained glass window :clap

Isabella, I like # 477 and 478 and especially # 477 for the slightly irregular look, like a child's drawing, naive.
