Artist Statement:
Creating this mandala was an experiment, but it became something more—a blend of patience, rhythm, and discovery. As I worked in Affinity Designer, each shape and pattern fell into place, almost like a conversation between structure and intuition.
I’ve always been drawn to the way mandalas can feel both intricate and effortless, complex yet calming. This piece is a reflection of that—playing with symmetry, letting the details build naturally, and watching the design take on a life of its own. It’s a reminder that even in digital precision, there’s room for creativity, spontaneity, and flow.
More than just a pattern, this mandala is a moment of focus, a snapshot of the creative process, and an invitation to pause and take it all in.
