Waking Life is the partner of Resting Life. As relaxed and serene as the colours in Resting Life were, the colours in Waking Life are bright, vibrant and full of life. You might say, as different as night and day. ;) As most of you know, the symmetry and flow of mandalas has a special appeal to me, so when I saw these pieces by Adam Millward, I fell in love with them. The style immediately lends itself to needlework, and as usual I've added my own flair with beads and specialty stitches.
