Beautiful mandala artwork to mediate with by Artist Ann-Marie Cheung.
A mandala is a symbolic representation of the universe with an inner and outer world. The word mandala comes from Sanskrit, an ancient Indian language. Literally mandala means “circle.” The circle is seen as a magical form, without beginning and end, just as the universe is believed to have no end.
Just breathe and enjoy 15 minutes of artwork and music.

An avid traveler, she has backpacked across Europe solo, rode an Arabian charger through the Valley of the Kings and Queens in Egypt, had a tattoo business in the Canary Islands, and crewed on a sail boat for Antigua Race week in the Caribbean.
Through life’s twists and turns, she had a successful freelance Multimedia Design business for a number of years while being at home with her 2 children. In her spare time, Ann-Marie can be found puttering around in her garden, learning to scuba dive or choking out her buddies at the Brazilian Jiu Jitsu gym.
Ann-Marie helps adventurous spirits create a joyful, magical space in their lives with her unique, vibrant, whimsical artwork. She invites you into her fascinating world of exotic colours, ancient patterns, ornate textures and rich symbolism where she is constantly exploring and creating with acrylics, mixed media and digital tools.
Ann-Marie has had numerous solo and group exhibits across Canada. Her work is part of the Canada Council Art Bank collection and has been published in Zen Doodle Tons of Tangles. “The Healing Garden”, an adult colouring book, is a published collection of her drawings.
