Originally this paper mandala was about my role as chief domestic juggler in my house. However, when I finished and looked at it, I heard the word ‘Squib’ very loudly in my mind. Upon further investigation ‘Damp Squib’ was the term I was really looking for: “a situation or event which is much less impressive than expected”.
Describing exactly how I felt about this paper mandala. Yet there’s a a lesson to be learned from the less favourite or impressive pieces we make. Keep going and try, try again. There’s always something to be learned, especially from our mistakes.
