Jerrie, how did you get the inner ring of your mandala so perfect like a flower? I tried following the instructions twice and tried all sorts of options in the pattern brush options but mine always turned out weird. <img src="https://static.skillshare.com/uploads/parentClasses/c8f7617e14b2e3bedd37f21583653a32/7f5b5161" alt="7f5b5161" />

Hi Jo... It's been awhile so I will have to take the lesson again to see if I can duplicate the results... I will get back to you as soon as I know.

Well done Jerrie! I love your image of the circle of brushes - it is fantastic. So glad it all worked in CS4 too. Thank you for posting your project. I've made a note of your shadow comment - would make a great class I think?

CS4 has no problem with this lesson &amp; neither did I!<img src="https://static.skillshare.com/cdn-cgi/image/quality=80,width=1000,format=auto/uploads/project/d05c8a5cd7f2f5fa345858235009a020/0f017d40" alt="Braids - image 1 - student project" srcset="https://static.skillshare.com/cdn-cgi/image/quality=80,width=600,format=auto/uploads/project/d05c8a5cd7f2f5fa345858235009a020/0f017d40 600w, https://static.skillshare.com/cdn-cgi/image/quality=80,width=1000,format=auto/uploads/project/d05c8a5cd7f2f5fa345858235009a020/0f017d40 1000w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 600px, 100vw" loading="lazy">
