Isn't this fun?!
One of my mandalas has been used for a CD cover!
The mandala below I made a few years ago for someone I hardly knew. My friend Muktha asked me to paint it for a friend of hers, Deep. She didn´t know the date of birth and since she wanted it to be a surprise I just painted a personal mandala with my intuition . Muktha's wish was that a Ganesha had to be in the mandala. Normally I don´t work this way, but the request and the lack of guidance from the date of birth created a new sense of freedom, in which I was very inspired and I made the mandala with a lot of pleasure.
Afterwards Orange was the perfect colour chosen for this person.
In the video above you see the cover and you can hear a part of the Mantra from Deep's Album Narayana.
The original piece is awesome... I couldn't get the video to come up but I can only imagine how great the CD cover is! :) Very cool indeed! :)
