Ginger Benton
Renowned as Mandalala in the vibrant artistic circles of Bakersfield, Ginger Benton draws inspiration from her deep affection for mandalas and the endearing moniker “Lala” bestowed upon her by her beloved grandson. With a creative journey spanning four decades, Ginger’s true artistic calling now resides in the intricate artistry of crafting and painting Mandalas, a pursuit she finds deeply enriching.
In the realm of symbolism, a mandala emerges as a profound dream motif, symbolizing the quest for wholeness and self-harmony. Originating from the Sanskrit word for “circle,” mandalas hold a sacred place in meditation, serving as focal points to center the mind and alleviate stress.
With unwavering dedication, Ginger honed her skills, delving deep into the art of mandala creation. Each dot of paint, each intricate detail meticulously crafted, was a testament to her commitment to this ancient art form. Through countless hours of practice and experimentation, she found not only artistic fulfillment but also a profound sense of peace and harmony.
Every mandala that emerges from Ginger’s adept hands is a unique masterpiece. From kaleidoscopic arrays embellished with mirrors and jewels to serene monochromatic compositions, each creation bears the hallmark of her artistic flair. While she welcomes bespoke commissions tailored to your preferred palette, the essence of her designs remains delightfully spontaneous and boundlessly expressive.
