1. #zentangle 2015-031, played with a Mr. E monotangle last night., 2. #zentangle 2015-031, "One Zentangle A Day" day 14. As usual, I jumped right in a tried to do chainging around tight corners right on a tile. When will I learn? I used TanglePattern string 12 for this one., 3. #zentangle 2015-030, yesterday's tile uses the 4 patterns out of "The Art of Zentangle" that were not on Tangled Patterns -- Zippee, Poppet (variation), Roxi (which so far I cannot like my version of) and Twink with a little Betweed thrown in., 4. #zentangle 2015-029, sort of. This was more from Zenspirations pattern and lettering book., 5. #zentangle 2015-028, "One Zentangle A Day" days 12 & 13, deconstructing patterns to flow from one to another - Bales to Chilon to Florz. I used string 140 from TanglePatterns., 6. #zentangle 2015-027, decided to give yesterday's patterns another go at a smaller scale. Also, kept Echoism simpler. Still not a favorite, but I like this one much better than last night's!, 7. #zentangle 2015-026, stepping out of my comfort zone and going larger scale with "One Zentangle A Day" day 10 patterns, Echoism, Finery and Fluke. Not loving it :-(, 8. #zentangle 2015-026, after having watched the YouTube video for Auraknot the other day I had to play with it. I added a little Tipple as well., 9. #zentangle 2015-025, made last night with Vega (need to learn how to so that one on harder curves as well as ending it) and Plurk from "One Zentangle A Day" Day 8, plus BB. I think I nailed the shading even though I totally biffed Vega., 10. #zentangle 2015-024, of course after the four exploratory exercises for "One Zentangle A Day" my official tile is probably my least favorite thing I did. Ha! Figures!, 11. #zentangle 2015-023, "One Zentangle A Day" day 6, mooka, amaze and flux with a sprinkle of static and printemps. I hated this one at so many points. I don't hate it now that it is shaded, but I don't love it either., 12. #zentangle 2015-022, "One Zentangle A Day" day 5 where I learned isochor and printemps (again) and adding sparkle to tangles (which needs practice)., 13. #zentangle 2015-021, "One Zentangle A Day" day 4, featuring shattuck, nipa, and jonqual. I kind of blended my shattuck with yesterday's festune., 14. #zentangle 2015-020, "One Zentangle a Day" day 3 tile, a day late because of the class I took yesterday. Being forced to work with these more organic shapes is helping be a bit looser in following my string., 15. This was the second tile we made in the beginners #zentangle class with Sue Clark. 2015-19, 16. Took my first #zentangle with Sue Clark of Tangled Ink this afternoon. This was the first time I used and official tile! 2015-018, 17. #zentangle 2015-017, not so thrilled with today's, I think due to the string I used. Oh well, perhaps it will grow on me. The darkness in the bottom right is shadow from photographing after sunset., 18. #zentangle 2015-16, day one of "A Zentangle A Day." I did this one last night, but couldn't photograph it until daylight., 19. #zentangle 2015-15, tile 7/12 which completes the 12 tile mosaic. I'll scan in the tiles and put them together on the computer tonight., 20. #zentangle 2015-014, tile 12/12 with just no. 7 left!, 21. #zentangle 2015-013, tile 3/12, only 7 & 12 remain!!!!, 22. #zentangle 2015-012, tile 11/12 with just 3, 7 & 12 left to tangle! The little slivers on the right I'm going to do with tile 12 since they are so tiny., 23. #zentangle 2015-011, tile 10 of 12, only 4 more tiles to tangle in the mosaic! I've learned a few things for next time., 24. #zentangle 2015-010, tile 4 of 12 in the mosaic. Not my fav, though I did stumble into the tile design and quite like the result of my mistake, so that is a win :-), 25. #zentangle 2015-009, my 6th of 12 tiles in my first mosaic string. I did carry one pattern across the tile line. That was a first for me, but it felt right., 26. #zentangle 2015-008, tile 1 of 12 (the fifth tangle of the mosaic so far), debating about blackening the frame if the ring on the right..., 27. #zentangle 2015-007, slot 6/12, part #doodlepatterns filtered random button and part improv, 28. #zentangle 2015-006, jumping ahead of myself, as my first tangle today was done during an early morning bout of insomnia. After breakfast I craved my routine of tangling while I finished my carafe of coffee. I'm also a wee bit excited about this larger ta, 29. #zentangle 2015-005, this tile is diagonal to yesterday's in the larger mosaic. I did reference the neighboring tiles to figure out circle sections from background sections., 30. #zentangle 2015-04 I cut up a new parent sheet yesterday and drew a big string on it before cutting, so today and the next 11 days will make up a big tangled mosaic. I am randomly drawing my tiles and using a filtered random button on the #doodlepatterns, 31. #zentangle 2015-003, the case of random not always being your friend :-) That's okay since part of this exercise for me is that things don't always have to be masterpieces. #doodlepatterns iOS app random button, 32. #zentangle 2015-002, since it is due back at the library today I used a D100 die set and Joy of Zentangle., 33. #zentangle 2015-001, #doodlepatterns iOS app filtered random button34.

Laura, the Diva at iamthedivaczt.blogspot.com/, challenged us to to a tangle study of Molygon this week. I did this one as a monotangle with the Molygon filled with orbs. Since my black micron is on its way out I decided to use brown and blue microns plus a gray color pencil for shading the orbs.
Check out the Diva's site to see what others have done with this wonderful tangle.
In February I taught a shading class. We had so much fun with Jonqual. Here's the tile I used to demonstrate during class. I just posted my second Zentangle Audio Meditation Challenge as well... More details on my blog here...
DIVA Weekly Challenge # 246: "Guest Post: Monotangle Trees"
a tree? yes - a christmas tree!
(Monotangle with "Onamato" /
beezinthebelfry.blogspot.de/2009/06/tangle-of-week-onamat... )
This is my first submission in "iamthedivaczt.blogspot" weekly zentangle challenge. I decided to use the tangleation I worked on a few days ago of the tangle: poke root. I really enjoyed the exercise and am looking forward to participating in future challenges.
Monotangle Yuma. Joey´s weekly. String 023: tanglepatterns.com/2012/10/tanglepatterns-string-023.html
I forgot that this was going to be a monotangle for this week's 'Adventures in Monotangles' with Roy from 'Mindful Creations' :)
mindful-creations.blogspot.com.au/
This Adventure, which is now up to Week 14 is to use the tangle called 'Hollibaugh'. So here you have it, something that began with Hollibaugh in mind, but then I got side tracked.
I'll try to do another one soon.
Thanks for your visit - comments are always welcome and appreciated :)
This was my response to the Diva Challenge #124 - We are Calgary. Laura asked us to do an "Open" challenge, but give some thought and consideration to Calgary, plagued by flooding. Many are responding and also includindg Colorado for their fires, Oklahoma - tornadoes, and India - even more devastating floods. Mine is a monotangle of Quiltz by Kym Barlow, on a background of rainbow colors. It is postcard size, 4x6 inches. The rainbow reminds me of God's promises, and the dove, the olive branches and rainbow after the first flood. Quilts always remind me of things lovingly made by hand, and often given to those less fortunate. These victims need dmore than quilts. They need money, food, water, and prayer.
Cardboard slotted puzzle blanks, bought in a crafts shop (coaster-sized). Started tangling & assembling :) Monotangles, mostly - also for demonstration at workshops. Yincut, Striping.
Just bought the Sakura Moonlight and Metallic Gelly roll pens they are AWESOME!
This is how they turnout on black paper.
Monotangle using Panthe. As I'm still learning this art, I don't really have a "go-to" tangle yet, instead I have something more like "tangles of the moment". I tend to use the most recent ones I've learned in various ways to grow in my tangling. This is one I recently picked up in a tanglepatterns "tangle refresher" and I thought I could incorporate it into a monotangle. Thanks for another great challenge.

joey's weekly tangle challenge # 198
series: "tangled in a string challenges"
This week we will use
String 206 and add the tangle
Ta-Da
(I have decided to draw a monotangle for this challenge!)
Laura had an interesting challenge for us this week. Take an old tile that needs something more and "Remix" it. And I did find a tile that I'd done last year - a Monotangle of Ing, which is on the left. Besides adding Gold Gelly Roll Pen to enhance some of the fills, I also used a Black Gelly Roll Pen to fill in the black better and to add a little more black. Then I added Flux, Zinger and BB along with the technique of Shades of Gray with BB and did some different shading on Ing.
This was fun to go back and add to the tile that I knew needed something more and it turned out pretty good. The shading and the gold don't show up very well, but they do look really nice on the tile.
Take a look at the Diva's website at iamthedivaczt.blogspot.com/ to see what others have done with this challenge.
mindful-creations.blogspot.com.au/ with Roy - thanks for coming up with these weekly challenges - it surely makes me think how to make an interesting piece using only 1 tangle :)
This weeks Monotangle challenge is to use 'Onomato'. I thought Monotangles would be easy lol, no way Jose! I find them challenging as you are more confined, as you are only to use the ONE tangle. So, in order to add some further interest I digitally enhanced this one. I don't think it's cheating, is it? it is hand drawn with some colour and special effects added - anyhow I got caught up with trying various looks. I really like it and hope you do too :)
thanks for looking :)
