About me
Viktoria Koval
I am mandala artist based in Saint Augustine, Florida. My favorite medium is acrylic on wood, canvas, ceramics, glass, jewelry, magnets, sculptures, just about anything that mandala can be painted on. I’ve been working with resin as well to bring lively vibration of colors to most of my art. I don’t use stencils, everything is free hand and unique to my intention and vibrations. I love to create unique new designs, each piece of my art has unique palette of colors
I usually create just following the feel, I choose colors using my intuition and follow my heart. I seek inspiration in the nature and everything around me as it’s all in the oneness.
I strongly believe that the set and order of colors used in mandala paintings can positively influence our mood and mental state and work towards your overall wellbeing. Mandala can balance the energy and lift up your vibration. I found that creating mandalas has brought more peace and awareness to my life. As with any of my creation I found that the sky is the limit.
I didn’t believe in my creative gift until I moved to USA from Poland. Growing up in post communist country, as I had very strong mind set that I can’t be an artist. I should work in bank or some institution in order to “survive”. I didn’t try out my art skills for years but I opened up and after graduating from college I began working with horses in which completely changed my overlook of life and approach. After I moved to Saint Augustine six years ago, it open me up to tremendous inspirations, possibilities, and creativity just poured to me from every direction. One day, as I sat on my porch and started painting mandalas on my flower pots like I did it all my life it was magic and I found my calling and purpose.
I have been working on my art now for the last two years creating unique art pieces full time. On weekends, I dedicate to myself to another passion which is working with horses as a professional horse and newborn foal trainer since 2008. I am more a horse behaviorist and I use natural horsemanship techniques- horse basically body language based on natural horse behavior. In which has help me understanding nature and animals in general in which I incorporate into my art.
I’ve been displaying my pieces and painting in galleries and art festivals cross country. My hope is to spread more love, light, joy and wellbeing to the world for much needed healing.

Mission Statement
Mandalas, meaning “circles” in Sanskrit, are sacred symbols that are used for meditation, prayer, healing and art therapy for both children and adults. Mandalas have been shown in clinical studies to boost the immune system, reduce stress and pain, lower blood pressure, promote sleep and ease depression.
Mandalas are used for insight, healing and self-expression in a circular design, reflecting the wholeness of the person creating it. This spiritual circle helps promote mindfulness, focus attention and promote healing. Carl Jung described a mandala as “a representation of the unconscious self “
A mandala hanging over the wall can also serve as protection of negative energy and unwelcomed emotions of anger, hatred or depression.
