8s Parte Dos


The challenge from the Diva this week is to use a tangle pattern called '8s Parte Dos'. It's a tangle that really requires extra concentration. And true to my usual form, I made it extra tricky for myself by doing it as a monotangle zendala. I made a few mistakes - especially around the edges - but in Zentangle, there are no mistakes so I'm accepting it as it is and enjoying it. I started using the sphere template from Margaret Bremner but I modified it a bit.

I used one of my colored tiles and a black Micron pen. Then I shaded with a purple colored pencil and added a few highlights with a yellow pencil.

  2. Delightful, and beautifully done.
    (Do you ever wish those purple microns were not QUITE so dark?)

  5. You may think there are "mistakes", but trust me, nobody else could possibly find them. This is truly terrific. I love everything about it, especially the way you used the sphere.

  9. It is so beautifully 3D, and I can't see any of your "mistakes". Isn't it interesting how they jump out at the artist so starkly but get lost to others?! I am telling myself, Sue, as I need reminding!
