Hey Steemians!

Week 33 of #zencolouringcontest starts now!

Each week I will provide a stencil to be coloured in with no restrictions on the medium used, with a chance to win 45% of this posts payout and the weeks' donations for 1st place.

To add a little twist and interaction within the community, there will be a featured colour each week, picked at random from entrant's choices. This colour must be used in some way in your interpretation (use as little or as much of the featured colour as you like).

The featured colour this week is Green
Below is a screen capture of the random picker's selection:
(with example shades of the colour)

This week the stencil is inspired by eyes. The eye is the portal to the soul (or window to the soul as the saying goes). So I created an ornate doorway to the realm of souls (eyes). There is so much detail in the human eye physically and spiritually so I tried to capture that in the complexity of this mandala. I hope you all enjoy being creative with this one!

Have fun, but most importantly have a relaxing zen-colouring sesh!

      Wow! I have never seen this contest before but I LOVE IT! Definitely going to print out that Marvelous Mandala and do some coloring out in the garden as I watch the greens of summer turn to the golds of autumn! Thank you!
