I had no idea of illustrator. I haven't used it before. Hence, this exercise is a big challenge for me to use the illustrator at the first time.
After I did the research, I am interested in some works.




Later on, I decided to use some symbols which related to the christmas day to create my mandala.
I referenced to the last picture that I uploaded above .
And then I created:

I kept changing the work. Using different symbols to create different effects.

And I handed this for my final work.

However, I think I haven't analysed the mandala very well after I handed in the work. I spent a long time to practice using illustrator. I only care the skill of using illustrator, but lose signht of the meaning and ideas of mandala.
