“Expect Miracles” started with adding gold to the little holes on the front of the stone thus creating the six orb extensions (legs). From there the whole design just unfolded naturally. In the end I found it intriguing how it looks like an aboriginal-styled turtle painting. In Native American culture, the turtle represents Mother Earth, with the hard shell representing perseverance and protection.
As a Mandala Meditation Stone, “Expect Miracles” reminds us to awaken to the miracles happening all around us. When we start to notice the small ones, we gradually open up and allow ourselves to see the bigger ones. At some point we’ll see how we create our own miracles with our in-the-moment awareness, intentions, and focus.
In reality, we are the miracle!
I used acrylic art, with gel pen details, to hand paint this stone.
My Mission: connecting with our Inner Light in delightful, inspiring ways
For me, creating mandalas is more than just coloring pretty patterns in a circle. I do it because my spiritual evolution and creativity require it of me. My mandala designs come about within an active meditative state, connected with my higher self, my spiritual guides and nature spirits.
Together, we bring into form, mandala art the allows me to re-connect with my own inner peace and joy, letting me explore and expand my own creative spirit to however far and in whatever direction I want to take it.
As part of my own spiritual journey, I encourage, and hopefully inspire, others to explore their own creativity, to help them re-connect with their own inner peace and joy. As a means to that end, I make all of my mandalas available for people to color. Why should I have all the fun?
