Mandala (Sanskrit: “circle”) = the story of the Universe

Originally from Czech Republic, from a very young age Martina was always drawn to any form of creative modalities.

Mandala medicine art has evolved from playing with a simple, meditative style of Zentangle Art (by drawing simple structure patterns like lines and dots) into Mandala art which she has been practising since then. Mandala drawing means the simple yet powerful act of DOING the art: to become more mindful of “here and now”, the process of finding BEingness and stillness within.

Until this day, the inspiration of most of her artwork has been dedicated to the journey with Mandala. This sacred meditative circle keeps coming back to her consciousness and ideas are then expressed on paper, canvas or wooden panel. She intuitively chooses colours and materials and her main influence comes from nature – flowers and leaves especially and to be able to capture nature’s endless expression of beauty.

In 2022 Martina facilitated workshops and found great joy teaching people how to draw Mandalas for themselves as a great medicine when stressed, anxious or in a chaotic state of mind. Mandala is a great teacher when starting or coming back to creativity. By drawing Mandalas you can learn the ultimate truth that everyone is able to be creative and uniquely expressive.

Come along to the Margaret River Library Cocoon Gallery for Emerging Artists to view Martina’s work while it is on display for the months of July and August. She is happy to take requests for Customised Drawings.
