In this book you will find dozens of illustrations with complicated to simple zen mandalas.

The artist has been sketching, coloring, drawing in sketchbooks since age five.

Author Biography:

Dawn D. Boyer, Ph.D. has been drawing since she was five years old, and would color her father's office stationery with crayons to create colored paper for art projects. She received her first acrylic paint set in 1973 and promptly drove her art teacher crazy finishing class projects in hours versus days. She attended Virginia Commonwealth University's, Bachelor of Fine Art Program, and then re-engaged later at Radford University (Radford, VA), earning her BFA in Graphic Design and Illustration. She returned to Virginia Commonwealth University (Richmond, VA) to earn her Masters Degree in Adult Education (Adult Education and Training in Human Resources), and then attended Old Dominion University (Norfolk, VA) for her Doctorate of Philosophy in Education (STEMPS/OTS/T&D/HR). Over the years she has developed a distinctive style for her pen and ink illustrations of old barns and houses, as well as Colonial Williamsburg architectural portraiture. She currently works in mixed-media using recycled magazines to create 3-D images of stylistic animals and mandalas, using childhood craft processes (bubble-gum chains, paper footballs, and quilling techniques) to create sophisticated paper baskets 'crocheted' woven together in a non-traditional way. Her drawing talent gives her an advantage in creating imaginative illustrations of the delightful fairy houses and fairy doors. Dr. Boyer is the author of 100+ books (March 2016), of which 80+ are available on Amazon. Topics cover business, career search practices, mandala books for hypnotherapy and meditation, coloring books for adults, women and gender studies, and quotes for self-improvement ("2,000+" & "3,000+" series), as well as genealogy and family lineage. She assists other authors publish their manuscripts in the print-on-demand market and also has a series of books entitled: Interview with an Artist. The artist interview books compile artists' interviews with photos of the artist's work to assist in marketing / branding their work to an international marketplace.
