I think this mandala began as the doodle I did for @karinSF
Kaleidoscope X and then photo studio then addlib then back through Photo Studio a few times. The border was added with Filterstorm when I was looking to see how big the image was. Seems Addlib only produces small resolution images too.
Finally had a medic lay hands on me for the first time since my op. I made an appointment to see my GP to check my scars/wounds. (What do you call them at this in between stage when the outside is more or less healed but the inside isn't?)
