    Oh...these are quite extraordinary! I can't imagine sitting down and producing something like that from the top of my head! What a wonderful talent to have! I could "see" a LOT of ways to use this type of artwork....lending yourself to designing book or album covers, personalized stationery, fabrics, and even wallpaper borders (the kind for WALLS, LOL)!

    I think you could have a very nice career going for yourself having such an ease with flowing design!

    memario is right! These would make extraordinary tatoos! You could sell the rights to your designs to tatoo artists. Have you ever done tattooing, purps?

    It seems to be a growing business in my area (near a military base), but lots of people are so into this nowadays. It seems more mainstream now than ever.

    I've seen a lot of kids and adults working legit jobs who have tats and tires in their earlobes and all kinds of things like that; 20 years ago, employers wouldn't take a look at you and would fire you for that stuff; now you can get away with it.

    Hey A&W~

    I rescanned your name.....you might want to use this scan as it was resized for avatar and I cropped off some of the extra white..... It should make the name part bigger as your avatar.

    I recently attended a Mandala art class. Some of your work reminds me of mandalas. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mandala Referring to them as mandalas might help with marketing in the art world.

    I'd have to scan mine. One day.

    In the meantime, I think you are trying to stick to "formula" too much with your Mandalas. In my class, the teacher put on classical music and encouraged us to flow. Whatever is in your heart will come out. Your works are natural mandalas. http://www.whats-your-sign.com/Native-American-mandala.html

    If you are drawing from your heart, it is not tedious!

    Now, I'll reverse my advice and talk a little about composition. You can ignore this if you like, because it might interfere with your natural flow. Incorporate large, medium, and small elements in the drawing. This eases the eye and draws the observer in.
