My PC is working now, so taking advantage of uploading some things I've been working on over the past couple of weeks - thanks for looking :)

Weekly Diva Challenge 'Brayd'. I printed off my first entry and have now added some tangles - thanks for looking.

Just another piece of migraine art I finally got around to scanning and uploading.

Single Stroke Abstract

black & white pens, & white colored pencil on grey scrapbooking paper

six new ATC's with tangles and patterns reveling in the new patterns offered around the internet

My ventures into drawing where before I couldn't even draw a stick figure.....

More tangled letters

I enjoy doing these Monotangle Adventures as it makes me think of ways to expand on the basic tangle.

I used Sandra Strait's tutorial on Semi-transparency to give it a different spin - mine are not as good as hers though :) tanglepatterns.com/2011/05/guest-contributor-sandra-strai...

This is done on sage coloured cardstock - I used some red, white and yellow Prismacolour pencils in several sections, still maintaining the colour of the cardstock.

thanks for looking - have a lovely weekend! off to bed for me :)

Diva Weekly Challenge #122 - Grid unlocked using 'Fancy Nancy'

I don't think I've ever tried this tangle - don't know how that happened as it's quite a simple and effective one.

Thank you for visiting :)

Sometimes, you just don't know why you do things - this is one of those times

Adding color.

25 February 2011

Trying out some different/new patterns...

(Colors are really black & white but don't show here)

plain B&W negative ... :)

I don't remember how this one developed. hehe

I drew a string, the fishy thing and I think I was trying to draw one of the wave tangles in Totally Tangled.

So it came up looking like goofy fish to me and since it has eyes, that named it. Sharpie ultra fine markers for color.

My very first Zendala Dare with www.brightowl.com

I have left it very spacious as you can see. Thanks for looking :))

I've been dying to try the 'Lampions' pattern by Mariet Dronten for ages now. I think the pattern is very cute.

They remind me of beehives, so ..... here is my piece, a beehive with buzzing bees ...

Coloured using Prismacolour pencils

Thanks to Fi (Nolansmanned), who gave me the link

thanks for looking :)

Trying out my new Faber Castell artists pens - Sanguine colour on Draw & Wash Art Spectrum paper. Lovely and smooth to work on. thanks for looking :)

The pad I was using didn't really lend itself to being turned around as it was awkward so some of the Windy Mills was done upside down but it still works. Thanks to Sandra aka Molossus - this is a lovely smooth flowing pattern :)

some things of late

so, I've come across another challenge. This one is over at creativedoodlingwithjudy.blogspot.ca/2012/08/freestyle-ce.... This week the challenge was to do freestyle Celtic Knots - these were fun to do and as you can see I couldn't stop at just one - thanks for looking :)
