MANDALAS: can be consciously worked with as powerful everyday tools for centering and inquiry
A mandala (the sanskrit word for “circle”) can be created playfully or seriously, it can be simple or elaborate, it can be interacted with in community, or be a quite personal circular expression of just about any subject. Mandalas are authentic ways to creatively center yourself, working with time-tested circular templates as a way map, inquire into, and understand life. Art-making with mandalas helps humans to visually integrate various parts of themselves or their worlds into meaningful wholes. Mandala as sacred cosmograms have been created in many world traditions throughout time—ancient technology for mapping information—by creating art in nature, sacred architecture, and containers for ritual and prayer.

about the paintings:
METATRON’S CUBE paintings: both are acrylic on unprimed canvas, 24”x24”. The first one is named “prayers for the earth” and is intended as a wish, a hope for the earth to be held in a matrix of light, intelligence and consciousness. The second is a meditation into the nature of life, using abstract form.
Early investigations into the Flower of Life ancient sacred geometry have led me to investigate and paint many versions of Metatron’s Cube. These are the latest versions. The ancient form of Metratron’s Cube contains within it the diagrams for the atomic structure of all carbon-based life.
series of heart spirals, by Margaret Lindsey
The first heart spiral I painted was inspired by a diagram of heart energy I found while investigating yogic bandas. The form has morphed over time into an emblem and expression of infinite love, and has served as a logo, a mantra, a banner, for the expression of caring love in many places. The heart spiral geometry continues to expand in my consciousness and work, and now includes a green version and a blue version. Meditate with the heart spiral, and write to me about your experiences, or post on instagram, #heartspiraldoorway
