Progress of Mandala Finals


For the final step of our project, I was assigned the words "masculine" and "feminine" as my theme. I decided to create multiple pieces, one representing each word, and a third that would combine both masculine and feminine elements. For the separate masculine and feminine mandalas I chose to use photos of various fruits and vegetables, all of which I sorted through and placed into the category of masculine or feminine due to their physical appearance. Fruit/vegetable shape was the biggest factor in determining what sex I felt it to be, but I took color into consideration as well. Here is what I have so far of the masculine mandala

LOVE the beautiful palette! You really have an eye for this style of presentation! I like the concept of Fruit (Female) and Male (Vegetable), and I am very happy that you are producing a third combined mandala... fascinating. Can’t wait to see the three pieces side by side (let us know when you want to start printing). And, because I can’t resist, here is a dancing banana.
