Beelight as a Monotangle

For this monotangle template from Roy at Mindful Creations, I decided to do Beelight as I thought it lent itself to the square shape. Using the filled in corners next to each other allowed me to change some of the square to look more circular:

A Dare #49 and a TOW for Week 9

Erin, The Bright Owl, challenge #49:

I tried not to drown it in tangles like I usually do. It is hard to stop though. Thanks Erin!

This week's TOW is Phicops. I can't believe how many messes (I know, there are no mistakes in Zentangle, unless you are trying to do a certain one LOL) But, I finally understood it. Just a bit slow at times :)

Monotangle Paradox Revisited

Roy, from Mindful Creations, asked for a monotangle using Paradox. Well, as you know, I already did that last week when it was our favorite or first tangle. So, I decided to combine his request with one I was trying to work on for my Glentangler's group. We were to tangle on something other than plain paper. I tried music paper and maps. They just looked messy. Putting a grouping of paradox seemed to work:

Brayd and a Dare

VERY loose interpretation of Brayd. Mostly because I couldn't do it right LOL!

Zendala Dare # 48 from Erin at Thhttp://thebrightowl.blogspot.com/e Bright Owl. This one was hard for me. I don't like to look and see what others have done so I don't get swayed. Now I will take a peek!

Roy's Monotangle Challenge

So, there is a new challenge in town. Roy, from Mindful Creations has challenged us to do a monotangle using the first meaningful tangle we learned using a simple Z string. The first tangle that I can remember was Rick's paradox. I believe that I came across it somewhere on the Internet and that's what got me started down the rabbit hole of Zentangle®. Looking at the finished monotangle, with shading, I find it difficult to believe that it is actually odd sections of paradox, usually done in a square. I believe it is because of the way I shaded it.

Steampunk Bear was such a fun project. She has moveable arms and legs and will be shipped off to a new home. In return, I will receive someone else's little bear. I colored her with Copic markers and shaded with colored pencil.

Dominoes, Dares, and More

It was a great weekend for tangling. I went to my local group where we worked on tangling dominoes. Our leader for the day was Fran from The Tangled Spirit:

These will be turned into necklaces for special gifts. Easy and fun, but a bit hard on the pens.

Then, I finished my spiral tangles for a group swap:

And, finally, the Zendala Dare #47 from Erin where she challenged us to remove parts of her template to come up with something different:
