Mandala Monday – How to paint dot mandalas with Kristin Uhrig #15- Red Dahlia

The tutorial for today is How to paint dot mandalas with Kristin Uhrig #15- Red Dahlia. We have already seen several of her videos in previous weeks, How to paint rock mandalas #4- Christmas design by Kristin Uhrig, How to Paint Dot Mandalas #30 – The Mermaid by Kristin Uhrig and How to paint rock mandalas #5- Rainbows by Kristin Uhrig which you might enjoy as well. I would also recommend her tutorial on tips and tools, How to Paint Dot Mandalas – Tools and Tips by Kristin Uhrig.

Here is what Kristin says about this tutorial:

“Though we will be painting on rocks again, soon, this tutorial on a 12×12 canvas will give you lots of practice “walking thte dots” in multiple rows to create flower petals. The dotting tools I used were a manicure stylus and RedHeart crystalite crochet hooks, available on Amazon.”

“Paints used: From Golden Fluid acrylics I used: Crimson Hue, Quinacridone red, Quinacridone Magenta,Phthalo green, green gold, Titanium white and iridescent pearl. From Martha Stewart I used: Habanero high gloss, Mother of Pearl, Meyer Lemon From Americana: Turf green, Bluegrass green, Sour apple, Purple sunset.”

Kristin Uhrig #15- Red Dahlia” I have been on a journey to learn a new painting technique to relieve the stress brought on through a medical crisis with my husband’s cancer. . A camping trip resulted in a fine collection of smooth flat, round stones. They were the inspiration for learning to create dot mandala designs on rocks, and then late on canvas panels. I began making tutorials to share this adventure with others, so they could learn from my mistakes as well as my successes. My hopes that others will be encouraged to try something new, and creat beautiful lasting pieces of art that will bring them joy.”
