As I really delve into my new platform ‘Buy me a Coffee’ I am realising it is so much more than what I thought at first was a purely crowd funding platform for creatives - this week I had an idea for a membership there whereby if you sign up for a monthly fee (like Patreon if you know that platform) you will receive an outline mandala design to print out at home and colour in for yourself along with a QR code link to the guided meditation I listened to as I create each new piece intuitively and spontaneously and each new mandala will have a theme such as Acceptance.
Colouring in has proven results for being calming and fun at the same time - it helps you access the now and takes your thoughts away from the past and future.
The word Meraki is quite new to me and is derived from Greek, it literally means the “essence of yourself.” I am interpreting it as leaving a piece of your soul in the work you have created with passion and a sense of happiness - sheer humanity, something machines cannot do. It is about doing something with creativity, passion and love, which is what I do with all my artwork, because it is my vocation, but particularly with my mandalas as I always either listen to guided meditations as I create or float off into a zone of elsewhere - elsewhere is a whole other concept for another day.
Would you be interested in a membership like this? Let me know by message if you are - thank you!
🙏😘💛🖤🐝
