Australian Flower Mandalas

"Australian Flower Mandalas" is a 20-page book for creatives, or those aspiring to be.

Every second page features a close-up photographic image of an Australian native flower framed by a matching colour, while the opposite page is a pale copy of the same flower, so as to allow you to trace and colour the flower outline or fill the page with a sketch, poem, a diary entry, or whatever takes your fancy.

The book has grown out of my love for Australian native flowers and Tibetan Buddhism. Combining the uniqueness and beauty of flowers and the symbolic representations of mandalas, the images in this book hope to demonstrate that there is a whole universe in every flower, and everything else on our amazing planet.

The book is light and portable (20cm x 20cm), as I hope to encourage you to grow your own creativity by keeping it in your bag and taking it for a walk with you, or indulging in it while sipping a cup of your favourite herbal tea.

Tracing or sketching mandala shapes has been proven to be therapeutic and a great stress-relief method.
