Geometry studies
Compass, ruler, patience.
Before and alongside the yantras came years of study in traditional geometric art: patterns from the mosques and palaces of Cairo, Damascus, Fez and the Alhambra, learned with The Art of Islamic Pattern and The School of Traditional Arts. These studies are the foundation of every yantra Himangii paints.
