Mandala ( Diya / Lamp Shaped)

Mandala ( Diya / Deepam / Lamp Shaped)

Namaste Everyone!
Today I am sharing a lamp/diya/deepam shaped  mandala. In India it is auspicious to light diyas / lamps for any occasion or festivals. This is Karthikai Month (mid November - mid  December) where in evenings we light diya and worship 'Gods and Goddesses'. 

I am sharing a lamp/diya shaped mandala which is semi circle in shape (one half). I have used simple repetitive designs in my mandala with a golden touch to show the brightess of lamp.
I hope you all like it!

Simple Mandala

Simple Mandala

Mandala in Sanskrit means 'Circle'. Today I am sharing a 'Simple Mandala' or 'Lotus Mandala' which is drawn with 7-4 dots. In the centre we have a dot. 

Dots are connected to form a star shape. We can use either open or closed lotus in mandalas which is also called as Lotus Mandalas. I have used open lotus to draw my simple mandala....as I always love to share lotus motif / design in my work.... (specifically in rangoli, kolam or muggulu, zentangle or mandala).

Thank you!

Star Zentangle

Star Zentangle
Zentangle as we know, is a way to expressing our creative design with repetitive patterns. Today I am sharing a Star Zentangle design.

In India we draw designs (rangoli or kolam) with rice flour to welcome goddess Lakshmi (goddess of wealth). We draw both dots and freehand designs.
This particular Star design, I have drawn with Dots, connected the dots to form a star shape, and filled with Zentangle pattern.
I am sharing the dots steps below:

This particular star design is very popular in South Indian....we draw this design on 'Skanda Shashti' for Lord Murugan or 'Subramanian Swamy' who is the son of 'Lord Siva'.
I hope you all like it.

Fish Zentangle

Fish Shaped Zentangle

Zentangle is an easy way of relaxation. You have small piece of paper, which is called as 'tiles'. You can draw, any design with or without a form. Where you need to use repetitive patterns to fill your work.

Today I am sharing a Fish Shaped Zentangle, which is very easy to draw and filled with repetitive design's, curves, strokes.
 
To make my work more attractive, I have used borders, drawn with Zentangle strokes.

Zen Doodle

Zen Doodle

Hello everyone!
Today I am sharing a Zen Doodle, which is a combination of Zentangle and Doodle. Doodles are simple drawing or a pattern, without any design. You can start with simple lines, strokes, dots, curves as we do in our notebooks....in simple words 'Doodle' is called as 'Scribble'.

In my Zen Doodle, I have started from bottom of the page with Zentangle, with lines, strokes vertically and horizontally, and filled with rectangles, simple repetetive patterns.

Above that I continued with pencil shading and drawn curves to represent branches and leaves.
Hope you all like it!

Lotus Zentangle

Lotus Zentangle
Zentangle is an art form, where repetitive of patterns are drawn. Tangles are pattern or design, drawn on 'tiles'. In Zentangle 'tiles' are white paper, where we draw patterns or designs, filled with strokes, lines, curves, circles.... with black pen. It is a black and white combination, such as white paper and black pen, where you can draw a pattern and fill it with repetitive design. You cannot erase your pattern, if you do any mistake....just continue, with steady and relaxed form with whatever you wish to draw.
Today I am sharing my first Zentangle, in form of Lotus. A very simple Zentangle in form of Lotus motif, with lines, strokes and curves.
Hope you all like it.
