green and blue zendala - dare



I used the newest zendala template from Erin's challenge's here.  http://thebrightowl.blogspot.com/2012/06/zendala-dare-12.html
And I loved the zendala Margaret Bremner did about the 'little blue planet' so much that I wanted to try a similar inspiration here. So I was sort of thinking about our planet - the earth and the oceans - as I started this. 

I used my same favorite watercolor technique with the Tombow markers here. And colored Micron pens too. I also posted a picture of the tile at the first stage. I was tempted to stop here as I was thinking about letting the background shading take the spotlight. What do you think?

  3. Lovely! I think I like the 'finished' one best, although the gradient blue washes are very nice.

  4. Ohhh so soft and delicate looking - both are lovely, but the finished one is really more beautiful, in my opinion.

  6. They are both wonderful, and I would go for the finished one. It feels warmer and deeper.

  7. They are both lovely, but I agree that the finished one with the deeper blues has more depth. Great work.
