HI Margaret:
Thanks so much for taking the time to look and comment. Rock art is so fun and accessible. I know Michael’s has smooth rocks, and I’m sure you can find smooth rocks online. However, any smooth rock from the outdoors will do – and collecting them all on a walk – especially if you live near water, can be such a soothing activity.

I hope this helps.
Amy

Many of them already love to do mandala colouring. So, I have not been collecting rocks, but need to buy some for them. Does anyone have suggestions where I can obtain some rock suitable for painting?

many thanks
Margaret

Hi Antique:

Maria’s mandalas are SO beautiful, aren’t they? And to your question, of course there’s hope for you. I believe that anyone who wants to be creative is creative. You might start with something like this post on Starting an Art Journal.

All the best,

Amy

HI Marina!

Thank you so much for your very sweet comments. Maria’s work is so engaging, isn’t it?

I was psyched to find your lovely site as well: http://www.mindfulmemorykeeping.com and I will definitely be sharing your posts as resources for self-care here. I have a self-care challenge coming up in a few weeks and will probably link you then, if it’s okay with you.

Cheers,

Amy
