✷ Mandala 7 - Escape Velocity ✷
Escape Velocity recalls a liminal July moment on a pebbled beach in the Smith River watershed. I've tinkered with it since last Summer. It’s a dimensional hybrid print with Kirigami elements, revealing slices of turquoise iridescence.

May: "Meditation I" honors the transition from spring to summer, a season of awakening warmth tempered by fog. With this seasonal turning, creative energy moves from introspective and inward to exuberant, expansive, and active.

"Limits and Imminence," my February mandala (2026 Year of Mandalas project on Facebook), reflects a month I experience as capricious and moody, yet filled with promise.
