Mandala day good Friday Ochiltree














I wanted to look at a creative workshop in a very reflective way and yes I admit ....this one I did really for me but what a lot I learned by opening this up in workshop form. The day was glorious and the outside 'drawing' and inspiration time amongst the sweet bird song and softly unfolding spring greens certainly helped.
We shared the point of inspiration of our own designs and by articulating them to one another we had a clearer starting point.
Each of us choose a different method but as the process of design was most important we started with a 'sheet' of prefelt so our full time and energy could be put into the creation process in the time limit we had.
