Asmahan A. Mosleh’s Mandalas

WORDS Mary Garner

Asmahan A. Mosleh is a UK-based Yemeni artist who creates richly-layered mandala artworks with acrylic paint and gold accents.

She spends anywhere from eight to 80 hours working on a single painting. Asmahan becomes enraptured with each piece she starts, completing only one mandala at a time.

What starts as a pencil outline traced over in pen is transformed using tiny drops of paint, adding character, texture and bursts of colour to each intricate and thoughtful creation.
