Discovering Patterns In Mandalas: Beginning Mandalas To Color (Exploring Patterns Coloring Books)

The mandala is one of the oldest art forms created by human beings. The word mandala means "circle," but it is much more than just a circle. It is a symbol that represents wholeness, a diagram that shows our life in relation to the infinite and divine. A mandala has a central focal point, with a symmetrical design radiating out from that center. When you look at a mandala, your eye is drawn to the center of the geometric or thematic pattern. The center can represent the inner self as well as the center of the universe. Today we use mandalas for a variety of purposes: *to relax after a long, stressful day *as a special treat we give ourselves *as a form of creative expression *as a form of meditation The mandalas in this book are for those who are just discovering the joy of mandalas. They are appropriate for children aged 8 through adults. Creating a mandala is fun, so let your imagination soar as you choose your medium and your color combinations for creating these beginning mandalas.
