Arukas is the newest tangle from Zentangle.com. I'm really enjoying playing with this tangle and have started to incorporate this into several projects. I've also started to try out different ways to use the basic pattern. Above I started it on a curved line instead of a circle. When I tried it in the area below the curved line I ended up with a Hollibaugh effect. Fun!
In this Zendala I put two small arukas patterns in circles and then one big arukas tangle.
Using a white gelly roll pen I tangled on blue poster board paper I had cut out with an oval paper punch. It can be an ornament or a gift tag. A blue colored pencil added the shading.
All three tiles are very nice but I really love the second one! It's just amazing!
ReplyDeleteThe combination of the one big arukas with the small ones - lovely :-)
oh yes, I like your style - and the shading of the first one especially. Very nice, Sue.
