Much like crop circles should be seen as 2D representations of 3 or more dimensional energetic systems, this is how I was inspired to color this Mandala #2.
I have chosen to fill in the color on the mandala in one of my favorite programs; Adobe After Effects! I never seem to be able to keep it simple, lol.
Creating this imagery (coloring in someone else's drawing) was a many stepped process back and forth between comps within AE using masking techniques on footage I have created with both my camera (I used footage of a Mountain Stream, and a full Blueberry Moon taken with a Nikon Coolpix L840.) and several computer programs. I also chose to incorporate a stock footage clip which I have created previously by editing it, changing the look completely, to create one of the layered background effects. When I completed the imagery in AE, I opened the video file in Adobe Photoshop and put the animated logo on it and rendered it as a .gif file.
I used footage of the refreshing mountain stream (unedited) to fill in the center because I felt that it created more of a Zen like 'flow' to the motion of the image since the stream is very healing energetically. I allowed intuition to guide me in bringing forth the imagery as you see it here.
