Mukto is a Dutch-born self-taught artist who developed the ability to tune in and simply become a medium for the universal healing vibrations, to be translated into color and form, as expressed in her mandala art.
Since 1978 she has been drawing forms and colors in a circle, the mandala. At that time not always being aware of the significance of the circle. She just enjoyed drawing. Always starting with the circle and from the center outward, nothing especially in mind, whatever line, color appeared.
Some times images will form, continuously changing until the very last moment of completing the drawing, originally using her first love, pastel pencils and oil crayons. In the late 80's she found her medium in the finer colored pencils, which she still uses today.
Her hand-drawn mandalas are geometrical or free flowing and reflect the years of meditation as a disciple of Osho.
"Drawing a mandala is a beautiful journey and meditation. Inner exploration and meditation over the past years have deepened this experience "
