Connection with the drum

If you bought a drum, you can personalize it by painting it yourself. It’s always different when you make your own tools and supplies. On the one hand you can relax when you work with natural objects, on the other hand you automatically build a relationship to the object. When it is finished, you can enjoy it even more.

A few days ago I painted my purchased drum. I did it the way I was told to do it on a shamanic journey by my spiritual teacher. It was a special picture I had in mind with certain colors. And there was also an “instruction” how I can create this image.

Here are a few pictures:

I first applied the white paint to the center of the drum, and then applied just a few drops of each color. Then I took two plastic discs (which you use for microscopy, for example) and pulled the paint from the center out to the sides. Afterwards I drew a circle with it.

Here is the colorful result.

Have fun!
