Kelly Thompson is the creative mind behind Kelly Mandalas!
"I believe creating and enjoying art is essential to good health. I love the moment when a great art idea "comes together", whether in my mind or at my fingertips."
What inspired you to start creating your work?
I loved watching "how-to" videos of people painting mandala patterns online. It looked so peaceful and meditative. I was looking for something new to add to my art hobbies and thought this would be the perfect addition. Turns out, it was!
What do you enjoy most about being an artist?
The ability to create something from nothing using just my imagination. I love the process of creating, from designing the first strokes to adding the final touches - it brings me joy to create something "just for art" even if it has no other purpose. Art has its own purpose!
Share one interesting thing about the items you create.
I rarely create the same pattern twice. Even if my aim is to "copy" a pattern on one item, I always add or subtract a few things to make the new item unique.
