The unique 'tails' found in the center of this mandala remind me of the 'flying buttresses' often found in European Cathedrals.  Buttresses act as an architectural support for the vaulted ceilings, much like the  wings of this image support the piece.

This is a 6x6 inch photograph, mounted to cradled wooden board and coated with high quality art resin.  

This piece is available in larger sizes and a variety of finishes HERE.
