One of the most popular mandala posts on this website is the DIY Mandala Tutorials that I shared with you all in February of 2015. As a result, I knew we needed more!

While those mandala tutorials are still amazing, there are also some other really great tutorials that are video based out there. Therefore, I’ve decided to put together this part II in order to show you some of those videos. I am including beginner AND advanced videos because no matter you’re skill level they can be helpful.

Beginner Mandala Tutorial Videos

1. Flowers Are Fun – Miraculous Mosquito : Website : Youtube

Firstly, so this was THE video that really got me interested. This video set my world on FIRE! Because of that excitement, I couldn’t wait to draw these lovely, amazing flowers that are built up with designs and petals of all sorts. Afterwards, I stumbled on to the term Mandala and it’s truly all the same thing!

2. How to Draw a Mandala – Boho Berry : Website : YouTube

This lesson is complete with compass, protractor, rulers, pens, pencils, and erasers. She leads you through the supplies and the steps extremely well.

3. How To: Draw Mandalas (For Beginners) – Alicia Thorpe : Website : YouTube

In this video, she lays out the framework for a mandala using a compass and protractor. Not everyone uses the pencil framework so do not feel like you HAVE to try this method.

4. Drawing a Mandala with 4 Elements + Shading – Barbara Din : Website : Youtube

This video leads you through building a mandala using only four elements. This is a wonderful challenge to break you out of a rut! It is also great to show beginners that it doesn’t take a multitude of design elements to build a fabulous mandala.
