AlignBetween Yoga Art Print on Canvas: Energize the Root

AlignBetween Art: Energize the Root

Oh, the joys of digital design, endless color palettes and infinite possibilities. I’m having so much fun with this AlignBetween art print on canvas, incorporating the elements of yoga, meditative mandala, and the wide-open center of a lotus flower.

So much fun that I’m feeling the desire to go crowd sourcing, and get your artistic, creative and stylish feedback .

This piece is titled Energize the Root. The original color palette was actually inspired by a recent West Elm catalog. Deep rich reds, almost maroon. Mellow and versatile tan or beige. The contrasting of white in the symmetrical mandala design…

…and then I found myself experimenting with all the variations you see below. What about you?

What color combination and style are you drawn to?
Where would you hang a piece such as this?
Do you like the more subtle palettes or would you like something more bold and colorful?
What images and impressions does this piece conjure up?

A little insight into this AlignBetweenwork of art: The silhouetted figure is my sweet yogi friend Carrie Ielfield of Brahma Living who teaches sunrise and sunset yoga classes in New Smyrna Beach, FL. This particular lotus flower was shot at Hakusan Shrine in Niigata City, Japan.

Don’t be shy! I’d love to hear your thoughts and suggestions. Take a look, leave a comment, Twitter or Facebook your thoughts, and share with your fellow art and design enthusiasts.
