Description: THE ARTS: GENERAL ISSUES. A collection of over 50 mandala paintings by Henry Sultan. Colorful and varied, these mandalas range in style from abstract geometric forms to visual narratives. In his work, Sultan explores color and shape, presenting square, circular, and diamond mandalas in every conceivable hue. The detailed paintings allow the viewer to meditate and marvel at the universal geometry that makes the mandala an important spiritual art form. Three sections of work are covered in this volume: geometric mandalas, figurative mandalas, and "landscape of the mind" mandalas. At times the paintings are extremely personal, as Sultan uses the format to unlock inner feelings and emotions. The mandalas presented in this book represent a lifetime of work.
Notes: Includes index of paintings.
