Mindfulness meets a sketchpad in this step by step guide to both free form and structured drawings. A tutorial written in an easy to follow, easy to start format. Everything I needed to start drawing mandalas and make it a sustainable practice with real benefits. Thanks @QuatroBooksUS for providing the book for sparking calm and creativity.

I impulsively checked this out at the library because I had just gotten interested in mehndi designs, and now I'm obsessed with mandalas. This has inspired me to buy some art supplies and get creative. Her artwork provides great inspiration, her guidance on how to get started is very helpful, and she even goes a bit into the historical and cultural significance of the mandala. Possibly my favorite part is how this art form is a great tool for art therapy; it's accessible, easy to do, needs no experience, and is very soothing.
