Description
This is a return to mandalas. I have tried to capture an organic feel to this one. I haven't decided whether it is completed or not in that I am always tempted to fill white space with black - and in this case it would be to try to add depth to mandala. Views would be welcome.A3 paper - done with Staedtler triplus fineliners

Also, I noticed you called this a mandala. Care to elaborate on your inspiration?

Now that is a hard question. I tend to let my drawings evolve from an essentially unformed, primitive and organic place (e.g. this one, Flowing Eyes, Search my Soul, Devolution). So, at the highest level they are representations of the infinite, ever-beautiful soul of humanity.

Interesting. I kind of like your take on things. Part of the reason I asked is because I view my own drawings as a sort of mandala. I tend to make them more for myself, and the act of making them, as opposed to the end product, and for others to enjoy. Of course, the enjoyment I see from others is just extra icing on the cake. =^)

We express our soul in the act of creation and satisfy our ego in the act of sharing - or something like that! Glad you like the way I ice my cake.

Very precise. I think it would do well with some colors though.
... Then again, there are few things I think shouldn't have any color added. =^)

Ah, but I am busy adding more B&W detail!

Lol, that works too. You're really good at what you do.
