Exclusive Soul Essence Mandala

Description

When I start work on a mandala, my intention is usually to express the Spirit of Place carried by the original photo. I might be conveying the restrained power of the volcano sitting below the Grand Prismatic Spring in Yellowstone or the whimsy of sprites and fairies playing in the wildflowers of my lower yard. Once in a while, though, I set out to share the beauty of, not a magical place, but a magical human soul in mandala form. The result is a Soul Essence Mandala. 

Would you like a Soul Essence Mandala of your own?  You can now commission a mandala that captures a bit of your Spirit or the Spirit of a loved one.  The exclusive option described here keeps you to you.  Your beautiful soul will grace your wall and you can share your shine with family and friends, but no one else will be able to purchase a print of your mandala.  I’ll reserve the right to display digital images of your Soul Essence Mandala (in an online gallery or to illustrate a page), but I will not identify you or tell the story of your mandala unless you’d like me to do so.

In your purchase package you will receive:

• one (1) 14″ x 14″ glicee print on beautiful watercolor paper (includes a 2″ unprinted border to accommodate matting and a frame)–currently a $55 value;
• twenty (20) 4 1/2″ x 7 1/2″ premium folded note cards on 100# white matte paper–currently an $80 value.

You will also be able to special-order and purchase additional prints, cards, and other printed items at current retail prices.

Once you make your purchase, I will contact you via email about scheduling your commissioned work and I may ask you a few questions to get the process started.

(If you don’t mind sharing your mandala with others, you might also be interested in the Share My Shine Package at a discounted price).

Linda Gribko

Linda Gribko is an avid gardener, naturalist, author, artist, and photographer living just outside Morgantown, West Virginia, on a one-acre property she calls Yellow Bird's Rest. She's been gardening since the age of three, when she was put to work plucking rocks from the family vegetable patch, and was gifted her first growlight set-up at the age of eight. Linda is best known for her wildflower photography and the digital mandala art she creates from her nature photos, but is also a mixed media artist and published author. Her quirky first novel, "Giving Voice to Dawn", was published in November 2016 and was followed up with "The Lion's Apprentice" in June 2020. The series follows the magical romp of a woman plucked by the Universe from the cubicles of Corporate America and dropped into the crease between "this world and that" where Spirit Animals carry messages, disembodied voices spout wisdom, and you never know who might show up to walk you back home.
