Mandalas

The significance of a mandala is the representation of the connection between our inner worlds and outer reality. “Mandala” is a Sanskrit word that means "circle". Mandalas generally have one identifiable center point, from which emanates an array of symbols and shapes containing both geometric and organic forms.  The beauty behind the geometry as well as the symmetry and repetition that lives within the mandala has inspired Andrew to create his signature line of wood carvings.
