New paintings, hot off the easel, and some thoughts on art and life ...

I've been wanting to paint a flower mandala for a long time.  I finally started working on one last week and it's coming along fairly well, so I thought I'd post a glimpse of it today. Yes, I know a mandala is a circle in a square, and this painting will be, but I cropped the image here because the work is still "in development."
