Animal Mandala

This is going to be fun - choose an animal. Nothing too obvious, and then incorporate elements of that animal into a mandala. If it was a koala, maps of Australia, maybe its nose and some eucalyptus leaves. Peacock would be stunning if a trifle obvious. Try and make your partner think about it, and see if they spot all the elements

In order to possibly bind the mandalas into a year-book, please make the format 7" X 6" sturdy paper. Make the mandala on the rightmost 6" X 6" area, leaving the leftmost inch as the area to bind it into a book. Please use sturdy, stiff, at least 65# paper (at least cardstock weight). If you use lighter paper, please mount it to stiffer paper. You may draw, paint, collage, zentangle your mandala.

I will manually check all participants before I assign so if I ban you you will have time to argue your case and if I have to - I will angel but be warned I have a longer memory than an elephant ....

Edited to add a bit more time ... forgot this week is Shavuot here and need a couple more days ....
