Description
Prismacolor art markers on archival paper.
In 2009, an intuitive told me: "You are an artist. If you don't do art, you will die." This surprised me no end because, in my family of origin, my sister had obvious talent and was labeled "the artistic one." Though I enjoyed art, I'd never before identified myself, or been identified by anyone else, as an artist. Immediately, knowing nothing about art materials or technique, I bought some art supplies and started making art. This is one of those first efforts, a series of mandalas. Interestingly, in studies of children's artistic development, the first shapes they express, across cultures, is the circle. So I suppose, in the mandalas, I was recapitulating the stages in my own artistic development. The circle shape had quite a grip on me. Hard to say whether I was making the mandalas, or they were expressing themselves through me. (In this one, I left a little 'escape hatch' in the upper left quadrant.)
