First dot mandala piece - not perfect nor perfectly symmetrical but happy with how it turned out 🙂 #mandala #dotmandala #painting

Did some #DotPainting the last couple of nights. :) Made a little metallic blue and gold magnet, and also got started on a new larger stone with a flower-like design on it. Still trying to figure out the rest of the colours. :thinking_rotate:

A small round half-sphere painted stone. The centre at the top is a gold circle, with radiating lines of gold dots, gold swooshes, and metallic blue swooshes arcing down to the bottom rim. It's glossed up and very shiny. Only about an inch and a half in diameter.

The same blue and gold magnet, but viewed from the side, showing the ends of the swooshes and a border made of tiny gold dots.

An in progress dot painted stone. It's round and flat-ish, painted black, and covered in white and yellow guidelines drawn on with watercolour pencil. There's an eight-pointed geometric flower or star design made with small silver dots drawn on the grid, with the points of each "petal" filled with metallic swooshes in either green or teal. There's a large silver dot in the centre.

And the second stone is a little one I made for myself, a "worry stone" to replace my old one which I gave to a friend.

This stone features thick dollops of gloss glaze on top of the dot shapes forming a raised/textured surface that is wonderfully tactile and lovely to rub your fingers over. It turns the stones into lovely little fidget toys or meditation tools.

Anyway, I'm really fond of this one! It feels wonderful to hold and to fidget with. It uses some of my favourite colours, too. :da_grin:

A small oval-shaped dot painted art stone, held loosely in my hand. The design is a rather simple or "classic" dot painted design, with a large centre dot and radiating circles of dots and teardrop designs surrounding it in colours of metallic pink, pale apple green, white, and metallic gold painted on a black background.

The stone held on an angle to the light, showing off the raised glossed bumps complementing the dots painted on its surface.

I have a couple dot paintings to share with you today! The first one I finished up last week sometime, a rather detailed one with colours and patterns inspired by Princess Jasmine from the Disney movie "Aladdin". :da_boogie:

I really like the blue/turquoise patterns in this one. The gold shapes on the outside were an experiment, but they're also kind of neat! :mandala:

A photo of a round, flattish dot painted art stone. The main geometric design is composed of flower-like petals radiating around a star shape in the centre. The star has a large gold dot in the centre and eight purple "points". The petals around this star are filled with radiating teardrop shapes in gradient shades of turquoise and accented with gold. It's all painted on a black background.

The same stone, but angled a bit, to show more of the outer edge. Around the main flower design are large teardrop blobs of gold accenting the design, forming a decadent-looking decorative border.

Another on-edge photo, showing more of the decorative gold designs around the edge.

Some WIP shots.

#DotPainting #DotMandala #MandalaStone #Mandala #Crafts #Crafting #MastoArt #Art #Painting #Acrylics #Triquetra #TrinityKnot #CelticKnot #WIP

A photo of the stone before it's decorated, simply painted black. It's sitting on a small turntable, and is covered in chalky white grid lines, with a sketchy triquetra drawn using the grid lines as a guide. Other than the grid lines, the triquetra was free-handed.

The stone in progress, with the triquetra knot outlined in gold and filled with gold dots.

The copper swooshes of the side band have been started; they're shiny and still wet.

The band has been finished with antique bronze swooshes to complement the copper ones. The arms of the triquetra dot on top still haven't been filled.

Slowly playing around with simple celtic knots. A triquetra, or Trinity Knot, for this one. I'll put some WIP pics in the replies for anyone interested.

Another one I'm pretty pleased with. :) This one was given to our good friend @neilk. :hearthands:

#DotPainting #DotMandala #MandalaStone #Mandala #Crafts #Crafting #MastoArt #Art #Painting #Acrylics #Triquetra #TrinityKnot #CelticKnot

A round, dome-shaped plaster rock painted black then decorated with a three-pointed celtic knot called a "triquetra". The knot's lines are drawn with gold pen and filled in with metallic gold dots. The interior of each of the three points has a dark red swoosh design inside. There's a bright metallic red red dot at the centre.

A photo showing the side of the stone, showing a decorative "band" made of copper and antique bronze painted swooshes, bordered by gold dots. This band runs around the sides of the stone, and under the points of the triquetra knot on top.

I was playing around with sketching petal shapes on a grid, and thought this looked a lot like an echeveria or other kind of succulent, so I ran with it. :D

Really pleased with this one! 🪴 :da_grin: The whole design and colours just fill me with joy. ☺️

A photo of a flat circular dot painted plaster stone. The main design is a radiating circular shape reminiscient of a spirograph and the regular geometric forms of echeveria succulents. It's outlined with gold dots, with the "leaves" filled in with shades of green, and accented with darker green swooshes. The succulent design is encircled by radiating stripes of gold and black, making it "shine". The whole thing is surrounded by a border of green and gold dots to finish it off.

A photo of the stone from the side, showing the dotted edge in various shades of green and metallic gold.

A photo from the top down, to better see the symmetrical nature of the echeveria/succulent design.

A quick post and run… a couple of dot painted stones I made in the last week. The first one was just a free-handed geometric pattern I drew on the initial grid, and the second features pastel colours chosen by a friend of mine. The pattern for that one wasn't planned or anything, it just came out as I went.

(I playfully call the design in the second one "Pastel Butt-Stuff". X) I'm such a child, haha. :da_sweat: )

A photo of a dot painted flat round plaster stone. The design is a geometric pointed sun with many points drawn with a gold pen, with the points filled in with blue, red, and purple metallic paint. The centre of the "sun" is filled with gold radiating teardrop shapes. The sun is "outlined" with metallic gold and copper dots, and there is a gold oval shape painted in the negative space between each point. There is a white dotted line encircling the entire design.

The same "sun" design, but photographed from the top down, to better see the entirety of the design.

A flat oval-shaped plaster stone, dot painted with a radiating circular design of various pastel pink, coral, green, white, and metallic pale teal dots on a black background, some joined together to make blobby shapes (some reminiscent of adult toys, whoops!). It's a busy and chaotic design.

The same pastel blobby dot painted stone, but photographed from the top down.

One more little one… a small dot painting that I hope to turn into a fridge magnet (I've been waiting on craft magnets to arrive for weeks now :da_sweat: ).

A small half-dome dot-painted plaster stone, painted with radiating teardrop shapes from a centre dot in shades of metallic gold, metallic green, regular green, teal, and white.

This was a fun one! 🤩 Love the way the pattern turned out, and the colours! I'll have to try this design again someday…

(I made a silly error when glossing it that resulted in some surface imperfections, but they're not very noticeable, thankfully! And I learned what to avoid for next time. :da_sweat: )

A photo of a dot painting on a round plaster stone. the design consists of a six-pointed star shape filled with radiating teardrop shapes in metallic colours of purple, pink, and turquoise. The star in the centre is circled with scallop shapes filled with the same teardrop starburst patterns. It's punctuated with metallic silver lines and dots.

Showing off the side scallop designs and silver dots.

More of a top-down view, showing off the six-pointed star shape in the centre.

Holding the stone in my hand, 3/4 view. It's nice and shiny.

This was a fun one! :D Wanted to do another grid painted stone like the green one I did a couple weeks ago (You can see that one here: https://comicscamp.club/@Rheall/113910812350609255 ).

I call this one "Mermaid Discoball". :da_grin: I gave it to one of my best friends for her birthday. :da_boogie:

A photo of a round tealight candle holder. It's divided into gridded sections radiating out from the centre. Each grid cell is filled with colour, from metallic pink, purple, and turquoise forming a gradient. The base colour is black.

A view from the top-down. There's a circle of dots in the main colours encircling the well in the middle that holds the tealight candle.

A more side-on view. It's entirely black on the bottom.

AmandalaRocks posted a video where she painted this stone a couple weeks ago, and I had just received my own "sphere" mold, so I thought I'd give it a go! (And even though I was using the same mold, the same tools, the same paints, etc., my measurements/tool sizes were all off compared to hers… oof. x__x Not sure what went wrong there! I guess I wasn't exact enough with my dot placement… I need more practice!)

I hadn't done a stone with this many dots in such close, regular quarters as this before, and I think it shows. ^^; Hers is much more regular and clean. Not to mention, this was the first time I tried out my own handmade paint cones for the tiny accent dots in such large quantities, and yeah, I wasn't the best at it… they're all over the place. :da_sweat:

Still, I made a cool thing! :da_w00t: If you want to see how you can make your own, you can check out AmandalaRocks' how-to video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gHghM1S55-8

A large, spherical dot painted stone sits on a wooden tabletop. Its surface is covered in rows of hundreds of small metallic white dots radiating down from a large centre gold dot at the top. Each row the dots get slightly bigger, until past the widest point, where they get smaller again. Some of the white dots are painted metallic gold in a pattern that makes a cascading diamond design. It's busy, but the regular placement of the dots makes for a pleasing pattern when taken in at once.

A photo of the top of the sphere, showing the large, round, metallic gold centre dot, with the rows of small white dots around it, slowly getting larger. It's easier to see how the gold-coloured dots make a bit of a starburst shape around the centre.

Wanted to paint but was low on creative energy, so I just filled in the grid lines with metallic paint. Inspired again by one of AmandalaRocks' designs on YouTube. Mine's not exactly the same, but the idea is! So many thanks to her for it. I like the result, so I'll probably do this again with different colours/patterns someday. :da_grin:

A small, oval-shaped plaster art stone, painted with a radial grid of black lines, each section filled in with different shades of metallic green paint. It gives a neat effect of the colour going from light to dark on each row, offset by one; like an expanding light show/music visualizer frozen in time.

A shot of the long edge, showing the dotted border under the lip.

The top down, to better see the symmetry and grid.

A newly finished dot painted art stone and a tealight candle holder. :mandala:

The tea light holder design was inspired by one of AmandalaRocks' designs, but I don't think I executed it very well. I'm happy with how the outer gold elements turned out, though! Still trying to figure out how I'm going to incorporate paint pens into my practice.

#DotPainting #DotMandala #MandalaStone #Mandala #Crafts #Crafting #MastoArt #Art #Painting #Acrylics #TeaLights #TeaLightCandleHolder #CandleHolder

A photo of a dot-painted art stone, with an eight-pointed flower design. The centre dot is gold, the inner petals are a pinkish red and white, and the outer petals are swooshes of pale green. Framing the petals are decadent looking teardrop shapes in gold and bronze. The whole flower design is outlined with bronze dots.

The same stone with the flower design, from the top down, to better see the symmetry.

A photo of a round dot-painted tealight candle holder. Circular elements with radial stripes of blue, turquoise, green, and yellow-green encircle the inner well that holds the tealight. The circular elements are surrounded with gold and black dots that look a little like some kind of lace. The hole thing is painted black beneath the design.

The same tealight candle holder, but photographed from the top, showing more of the symmetry.

The painting continues… :mandala: It's my safe space right now. :sparkling_heart_black_trans: :hug: :chick_hotcocoa:

The design is from AmandalaRocks on Youtube; I absolutely love her designs, and her videos: https://www.youtube.com/@AmandalaRocks/ :da_love:

#DotPainting #DotMandala #MandalaStone #Mandala #Crafts #Crafting #MastoArt #Art #Painting #Acrylics #Spiral #BlackAndWhite #Greyscale #Grayscale

A photo of a small, circular painted dot mandala stone sitting on my fingers. The design is a spiral of swooshes emanating from a centre dot. The swooshes start small and dark metallic grey, then get larger and lighter in tone until they're metallic white at the edges.

A top-down shot to better see the spiral.

A side shot, to show the edge swooshes near the end of the spiral.

Finished this one up a couple nights ago. I'm pretty pleased with how it came out! A bit art deco, a bit nouveau, I think? :da_grin:

A photo of an acrylic painted dot mandala stone sitting on a wooden tabletop. The stone has an eight-pointed flower-based design, with a metallic blue, pink, and white dot at the centre. Radiating from that are yellow-green triangles forming rays, and then eight petals filled with green and metallic blue swoosh designs. Between each petal is another yellow-green diamond shape, embellished and outlined with white dots. The whole design is outlined with lots of small, metallic copper dots. Around the edges are some small half-circle plant shapes made out of green and yellow-green swooshes, with radiating metallic pink bars between them.

A photo of the stone from the top down, so you can easily see the radial symmetry.

Another side on photo, showing more of the edge designs.

So here it is all glossed up, for those interested. :) My friend liked it a lot! :da_love:

A photo of a round, painted, dot mandala art stone. The design is made of circles of dots of various sizes in shades of purple and pink on a black background. It's all shiny from a few coats of gloss varnish.

Whipped this one up one night when we got back from our Xmas trip. I missed my dot painting so much! It'll be a gift for a friend. :) Extra layers on some of the dots make them "pop" a bit, and will hopefully be a pleasing tactile experience once it's all glossed up. :blobpatpat:

#DotPainting #DotMandala #MandalaStone #Mandala #Crafts #Crafting #MastoArt #Art #Painting #Acrylics

…NOW we're finished! :da_boogie:

Added a layer of silver highlights to the swooshes, to add some extra shininess. :D It's probably a bit too much, "gilding the lily," as they say, but it was fun anyway! All varnished up, too, so it's *done* done. :da_phew:

How you enjoyed watching it come together! I really enjoyed painting it, it was so relaxing. Lots of love, everyone! :blobhug2:

#DotPainting #DotMandala #MandalaStone #Mandala #Crafts #Crafting #MastoArt #Art #Painting #Acrylics

The finished mandala stone. It's a flat, oval "stone", cast from plaster, and painted with a black background. Painted on top is a geometric flower pattern lined with lots of small silver dots, with eight "petals", coloured with metallic white, blue, and turquoise "swooshes". There's a large, silver "dot" in the centre. The edges are also decorated with half-circle swooshes in metallic lavender and sky blue. The swooshes and other parts have been embellished with silver highlights. The stone itself has been varnished, making it all shiny in addition to the metallic shimmer.

Another shot of the stone, from the side, showing more of the side swooshes.

I think this is my favourite dot painting I've done to date. :ablobcatattention: The photos don't really do it justice… it feels so special and precious when I hold it in my hands. :da_love:

I have no idea what I'd call this design, though, if I had to give it a name. Any ideas? :thinking_rotate:

DecoArt Americana acrylic paint on a Ultracal 30 plaster cast "stone", then varnished with DecoArt Duraclear Gloss Varnish.
