I could draw mandalas all day. I think I go crazy for the ones that have nature elements in them more though. Micron ink on Bristol. Janelle Dimmett 2023. www.janelledimmett.com
Mandala art is one of the most satisfying ways one can use to let go of their stress etc. A little colour mix , a little flower design & done. The details added to it are its true essence
Botanical Hawk Design I drew for my former junior college alumni banquet. They had it printed on a giant canvas for people to color. It started out as a small doodle and transpired into something else. ha ha. Made this with Sakura Micron Ink ( 01 and 005) on Bristol with Digital Editing to finish.
Sketched a great photo from Unsplash and then added a touch of color. I really want to develop watercolor, but I also love the way that pencil simplifies vision. I like how this turned out and will continue to play with this.
Dismal.
Another one of my favorite words. And incidentally, I am so good at drawing dogs. Dismally good.

I dedicate this work to my beloved pet, Cenna. Although she left me a few months ago, my memories of our time together will never fade.
Thank you for everything you gave me, Cenna. For being there every time I started to cry, for watching over me while I slept, and for always being by my side when I needed someone to listen.
I miss it all, Cenna.
