Up: [[Expressive Art Ideas - A Long List]] Created: 2023-02-26 Joan Kellogg, an art therapist and [[Mandala]] expert, says 10.5-11 inches in diameter is a good size for a mandala because it’s similar to the size of a human head. To which I say, So What?? Use square paper, 12x12 if making a head-sized mandala, because Jung says that a circle within a square is a representation of [[The Self]]. Try both white paper and black paper to see which you prefer. Use any drawing materials — coloured pencils, soft pastels, oil pastels. Fill in the circle any way you want with colours, lines, images. Can start anywhere, can go outside the boundaries. Keep going until it feels done. See if a title comes to mind.
