Hello Curious Times readers! Haripriya Harish from S.T Paul’s Public School in Kerala has graced us with a stunning piece of mandala art that is sure to inspire budding artists of all ages. This intricate peacock mandala drawing is a testament to Haripriya’s creativity and her skillful execution of zentangle patterns.
Children’s Art Showcase: A Peacock’s Elegance
Haripriya’s hand-drawn artwork showcases the elegance of a peacock, with its feathers transformed into a mesmerizing display of intricate patterns. The black and white art style allows the details of the design to shine through, while the use of zentangle elements adds a touch of modern flair to this traditional Indian art form. It’s a beautiful example of how kids drawing can be both expressive and intricate.
Creative Drawing and Doodle Art for Beginners
Want to create your own mandala masterpiece? Here’s a simple guide to get you started:
- Choose Your Subject: Pick an animal, object, or shape that inspires you.
- Start with a Circle: Draw a circle on your paper. This will be the base of your mandala.
- Divide into Sections: Draw lines to divide your circle into sections, like slices of a pie.
- Fill with Patterns: Start filling each section with different zentangle patterns. Let your creativity flow!
- Add Details: Once you’ve filled all the sections, add details to your subject. In Haripriya’s case, she added intricate patterns to the peacock’s feathers.
- Outline and Shade: Outline your design with a black pen and add shading to create depth.
Remember, there are no right or wrong ways to create mandala art. It’s all about expressing yourself and having fun with patterns!
