Soul Mandalas by D. Kristen Herrington

thank you, but i think you're really feeling the energy of my clients' souls ~ it's quite lovely!

your work is quite lovely, too! thank you for sharing!

ah, yes, precious friend ~ i should have teaseled out the activity of peace long before now. but, at least i get it now.

i would beg to differ with you on one point. your comment, "We are in constant conflict with our inner worlds and the outer world," i think is a statement of perception. i believe we can choose to live in peace and in a peaceful state while fully acknowledging the lack of peace surrounding us. in fact, by choosing a path of peace and choosing to focus our hearts, minds and energy on peace, we actually help the energy and action of peace expand throughout our world.

i'm personally am in no particular ongoing conflict between my inner and outer worlds. i fully realize that i'm but a work in progress and have sooo far to go, but my soul relishes the opportunities to learn and grow throughout those circumstances and refuses to sit in judgement when my behavior is lacking. in my perception this is how we all live ~ in a constant loving embrace of growth and expansion. we can choose to expand in peace or we can choose to expand in all the various perceived negatives of the world. regardless, to our souls it's all a wonderful process and always a movement toward wholeness and peace. ...

in my reality, peace and peacefulness are the default mode of existence, even if it takes some time and energy on all our parts to bring the physical world to that awareness. it's okay ~ we'll get there!

I create soul mandalas, too, although I call them personal mandalas. It's an amazing thing to have an image come through you like that, isn't it?
There's a new mandala video in the YouTube section of my page, http://www.facebook.com/pages/Mandalas-by-Atmara/92722934943. This is my first attempt at creating art with moving mandalas. Let me know what you think. Enjoy!

your work is lovely!

fractals just seem far too complex mathematically for me, but you've created wonderful images using math as your tool ~ excellent!

here's a comment i made some time ago about fractal mandalas as compared to what i do:... See More

"ah, yes, fractal mandalas are quite lovely ~ absolutely stunning!

these mandalas, however, are far more primitive and personal than a complex mathematical formula. each line is individually placed, duplicated, flattened repeatedly. each color is selected by row and filled in individually.

these mandalas are more like folk art when compared to the sophistication of fractal mandalas."

i have a great deal of respect an admiration for fractal artists, and your work ranks among the very best i've seen!

aw, thank you so much! (blushing profusely...)

thank you! so happy to see you here!

These are really quite remarkable.

aren't they!?! David is truly gifted and a wonderful person as well!
