Weekly Challenge #137, a TOW, and Some Organic Tangles
Laura, the Diva, has given us an interesting challenge this week. Knightsbridge and Tipple. Two very easy tangles, so what to do to make them interesting. Here's mine:
I was playing with my Twinkle H2O watercolors again. I just love the look of them. You can't really see the beautiful colors here, trust me, they are. My Yahoo Group had a TOW using Opus:
And, finally, some organic tangles just to please my friend Amy. Check out her NEW tangle blog and leave her a welcoming comment. New bloggers need a lot of encouragement :) (And, she does beautiful work besides!)
Wow three beautiful artwork you show us here. I like the colors, but even more I like the last one with the white highlighting. Great
ReplyDeleteThank you. It is white charcoal. Fun to use.
DeleteOMG -- I looooooooooooove the organic tangles! Makes me so excited for class on Friday!!! Can't wait!!
ReplyDeleteMe too, Amy. I thought teaching Zendala's would be my favorite but now I can't wait to work with you all on the gardens. So many possibilities! And thanks for the kind comment too.
DeleteWonderful works! Especially I like the second one. Opus is beautiful on this colored background!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Lonetta. I don't think I have ever done Opus before and it's such an easy one too.
DeleteWow, a great tile Jean!!!!! The other two a beautiful too.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Annemarie. It's funny how sometimes it works and sometimes nothing seems to work!
DeleteLove your tiles, the first one seems to be holding all the pods together.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Meghna. I think it looks like some alien pod plant!
DeleteLovely!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Helen. I appreciate your stopping by to leave a comment.
DeleteVery nice to see so many different pieces. Your challenge is very organic and you did a great job of softening a very grid like tangle. Love the opus on the colored background, and the white shading is so very effective. All lovely.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Sue. I did the teardrop string, but when I finished I thought I should add something. I think it kind of looks like an octopus! That tan paper is nice to work on with the white and sepia.
DeleteAmazing Jean! You were right, we went the same direction with this challenge! Amazing how similar are our knights tiles!!! :-) You did a great job with the other tiles as well! I love all of them!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Cecilia. Obviously I think yours is wonderful too HAHA! Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment.
DeleteLove your take on the Diva Challenge and thank you for sharing you other pieces, I just love all the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteThanks you, Brenda. I just love seeing what other people do. I can just wander around the Internet for hours looking at the beautiful work that others do. Loving Zentangle.
DeleteLike the shading. for some reason reminds me of a squid.
ReplyDeleteDonald, thanks. I was thinking octopus, but you're right, more like a squid!
DeleteBeautiful work, great challenge piece, very dynamic. Twinkle H20 is lovely and your Mooka piece is great, really enjoy the white highlights on that organic paper.
ReplyDeleteThank you very much, Daniele. Mooka has been a challenge for me, but it's getting better.
DeleteVery fun challenge piece, but I love the organic tangles on the toned paper! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThank you. That paper is great to work on. I gave my student's some to work with as well and they did beautiful tangles on it.
