Recent reviews of Learn to Draw Mandalas

• 5/5 from Lynne Segal, attended Aug 2025: This is a well-structured, steadily paced lesson in systematically drawing a mandala, providing the few simple tools required to bring it to life. Given that mandalas have traditionally been a focal point for meditation, It's not surprising that in the act of making one, your mind slows down. Akanksha breaks down the elements into simple marks that when combined create a very real mandala in all its complexity. Plus you walk away with a piece of contemplative art and the skills to create more.
• 5/5 from Alisha Scappin, attended Feb 2024: We had so much fun learning to draw mandalas with Akanksha! My friend and I attended together, setting up our drawing space and joining the video call from the living room. Akanksha did a great job of sharing her live drawing process, adjusting the techniques and pace to suit our skills. Our little errors along the way became part of the character of the end product, and Akanksha even showed us a few tricks to make them less obvious. Thoroughly enjoyed this class - would be great in a group setting too!

• 5/5 from Palakdeep Bamrah, attended Jan 2021: Had an amazing experience learning mandalas. Akanksha is a great artist and passes on the knowledge in a way that you can practise on your own later and create wonderful mandalas. I had some issues with internet and hence was late. Akanksha followed up with me and waited. We lost around 30 mins but she still managed to cover everything. I’m really grateful for that. Since then I practise drawing mandalas daily and it is honestly a very beautiful form of meditation. Highly highly highly recommended class.

Great class- thanks!
