Diva Challenge #136, New Facebook Group for Tanglers

The Diva asked for color this week. Color she got:



I used Copics, my black Micron, and a purple Sharpie.
Tangles = Henna Drum, Squid



There is a new group on Facebook for people who like to use templates to add their tangles.  Ornate Animal Illustrations. I have done two so far. One in black and white and the second one has color added. Can you tell I am taking an online class from Strathmore with the background? They have free classes. Right now, I'm taking the one with Jane LaFazio and Joanne Sharpe and they both recommend a background border:

    Jean, what fun, I'm taking the same class from Strathmore! Isn't it great to have such skilled teachers?! Your zentangle for the diva's Challenge is wonderful, very nice tangles and colours. I also like your birds and I certainly will take a look on the Facebook page!

      Thank you. Lonetta. It's fun to work with color now and then. Yesterday I used a 50% off coupon to get a HUGE set of colored markers!

      I know you meant, Jean, Susan. After you look at so many of them it's easy to forget whose you're looking at :) I do appreciate your comments and that class is just a lot of fun too. Let me know if you have found any other great FREE online classes!

      Thank you, Helen. Sometimes it is nice to have someone else make up the string for you.

    Like your top tile. Reminds of something that could be a print on a wall covering.

      Thank you Donald. I have been looking at a lot of fabric prints lately that use some of our tangles. I think it works well in a lot of applications. Just because tangles can be so beautiful.
