Mechanical Mandala by Annie Love in Auckland

I've always loved making art from a young age and find creating it as a way to self express. After getting my first tattoo 13 years ago, I began my carrier as a tattoo artist. I still tattoo today but making art is my main love. I attended a yoga teacher training course in 2018 in Vikasa on the island of Koh Samui, Thailand. It was here where I started drawing mandalas during the break hours and as a means to give my mind a break from the intense studies. I fell in love with the creation process and the calming effects it had on my mind. 2 years on, during the pandemic lockdown was when I really immersed myself into creating them as I had so much free time. I still find making mandalas to be therapeutic. I hope you enjoy viewing them as much as I have had making them.
