Mandala

It's been quite a while since my last post but I never stop painting!  

Sometimes there is the need just to reflect on what I'm doing, I like to learn, experiment and think about where I'm going.  I think everyone needs to do that occasionally.

I've been trying out painting on mdf boards instead of canvas, working on new ideas in mixed media and planning a trip to Spain,  (more about that later).

The shape of this Aloe reminded me of a Mandala, with its repeating patterns and the terracotta pot forming a circle around it.   What do you think?

Oil on board 35x31 cms.
