Aurelia – Original Hand-Drawn Mandala
A meditation in ink and intention – an original hand-drawn mandala that invites contemplation and calm.
Aurelia is a one-of-a-kind hand-drawn mandala, meticulously crafted over six hours of patient, focused linework by Maverick Creative artist Naomi Nicholas in the Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire. Each petal, swirl, and decorative flourish radiates outward from a luminous golden centre, creating a visual anchor that draws the eye inward and encourages quiet reflection.
This piece began as a meditative doodle in a sketchbook – the kind of drawing that emerges when the mind settles and the hand moves with intention. What started as a personal practice has evolved into an original artwork, now framed and ready to bring that same sense of stillness and beauty into your home or workspace.
Aurelia is the first piece in The Auric Trilogy — a collectible series of three original hand-drawn mandalas united by their golden palette and meditative energy. Solara, the second piece in the series, is also available.

Frequently asked questions (that we know you're thinking)
"How long with it take to arrive?"
Ah, the age-old question. Our products aren’t mass-produced by robots in a warehouse the size of Wales. Nope — they’re lovingly crafted by real humans (with real caffeine addictions) in our Forest of Dean studio. That means:
Usually 3–5 working days to make your masterpiece. If it’s personalised, bespoke, or just plain fancy, it might take a smidge longer — but we’ll keep you posted.
Once it’s made, it’s handed over to the postal pixies. UK delivery typically takes 2–3 days. International delivery will take a bit longer (because oceans exist).
Drop us a message before ordering. We can sometimes work magic — but we’re fresh out of time machines.
While our website currently only supports UK shipping, we do welcome international orders! 🌎✨
Due to the complexities of overseas shipping and sales tax, we’re handling international orders manually for now. If you're outside the UK and would like to place an order, simply Contact Us and we’ll be happy to assist you directly.
We’re working hard behind the scenes to bring international shipping online in the New Year — so stay tuned!
Thanks for your patience and support 💛
Don’t worry — we’re not offended. (Much.)
If you’ve scrolled, clicked, zoomed, and squinted and still haven’t found the perfect product, it might be time to go rogue...
👉 Head over to our Custom Builds page and tell us what you really want. We love a challenge, and we’ve got the tools, the talent, and just enough caffeine to make it happen.
Whether it’s weird, wonderful, or wildly specific — we’re here for it.
