 Well I was on the internet and was reading Staci Swider's blog and she mentioned that while in Asheville, North Carolina she visited Daniel McClendon's studio. So of course I just had to see who this artist was and all I have to say is WOW. His work is so incredible. I can't even explain how amazing his art is. It really speaks to me and I am so glad I discovered him. So of course I had to share this on my blog. The image above and images below are examples of Daniel's art and were obtained from his website ( each image links back to his website). His Website: http://danielmcclendon.com

Some more mandalas............. Well as some of you awesome blog readers may know I am participating in the 100 day project and am creating 100 days of mandalas. Although, I have a feeling I will continue creating mandalas long after the project is finished. I am just having so much fun creating these mandalas. They really are very meditative and some say even healing. I think I am somewhere between day 21-30. I will have to count and see how many mandalas I have created since starting the project. Anyways, below are just some of the beautiful mandalas I have been creating.        Cherries.............they are just so good!  Cherries always remind me of my home country of Bulgaria. My grandparents live in a village outside of Pernik and as a little girl I remember spending many days playing in the big back yard behind my grandparents' house. There was this big cherry tree in the back and from one of the tree's majestic branch was a swing my grandfather had built. I remember many summer days and nights swinging from that swing and gazing at the sunlight from above as it visually echoed on the leaves and cherry shapes. It was a very tall tree and I can vividly remember my grandfather using a stick of some sorts to shake the branches from above. As he shook the branches cherries would fall to the ground and my grandmother and I would pick them up from the ground and eat them. Ahhhh sweet memories. I only lived in Bulgaria until I was 5 but I still cherish those memories. I still love cherries and it's no wonder that I associate cherries with summer days, the sun, the smell of flowers,family, and happiness! Picture below is a scanned image from a picture of Bulgaria that I took when visiting my family a few years ago. Not the best picture but I couldn't find any other pictures.   Getting ready to eat some cherries! |
