Art
Art enlights every age
Art touches every soul. Creativity allows us to connect with our deepest core. This is possible at any age. I would like to introduce you to my father's works; at the age of 83, after my mother's passing, he supported his grieving process by coloring mandalas with colored pencils.
Joseph Nelson
After my mother's passing, my father sought an activity to fill the time he had dedicated in recent years to caring for her.
He used to create oil paintings, reproductions of Flemish masters, but as he walked past the book and magazine section in the supermarket, his attention was drawn to a book of mandalas. Together, we went to an art supply store and bought a large box of Caran d'Ache colored pencils.
Nowadays, he spends his free time coloring mandalas. The small artworks are admired by everyone who visits us in our new home in the sunny south of Spain. Several of them already decorate our guest rooms. Joseph (dad) also loves to give them to our visitors, so the memory of each mandala fades for him. That’s why, some time ago, I started taking photos of his beautiful mandalas. For his birthday, I had t-shirts printed with his mandalas, and he was incredibly proud of his work!
That’s why I decided to give his mandalas a longer life, and now you can also find them in digital form in the webshop.
Be creative!
