ZENTANGLE CHALLENGE: GARLIC CLOVES & FLOREZ

Hi everyone! I’m back today with more Zentangle. I hope you enjoy!

 

Size: 3.5 x 3.5”; Zentangle Patterns: Garlic Cloves, Florez

The Shading Zentangle challenge pattern was Garlic Cloves last week and it is Florez this week.  I didn’t get a chance to draw last week, so I combined these two patterns for this tile.

FAIRY ISLE

**Second post for today**

Hi everyone! I’m back with more Zentangle  inspired art (ZIA). I hope you enjoy! This is another experiment for me. I started by drawing the art using a micron pen.

The photo above is the line art. Yes, I almost forgot to take this photo! I started shading the center flower and remembered to take the photo.

This photo is the piece completely shaded with graphite. I now sprayed it with a workable fixative so I could add color without muddying the graphite.

Size: 8x10”; Zentangle Patterns: Printemps, A-dalfa, Flee, Roxi, Pippin, Yincut, Yuma

This is the final product which is colored with Prismacolor color pencils. After coloring Roxi, I added some Twinkling H2O to add sparkle. Roxi reminds me of small seashells and Yuma reminds me of the sea. I called it Fairy Isle because of the “seashells”, the sea, swirling tides (Printemps), the palms (Pippin), flowers and finally the sand (Yincut).  My husband pointed out that the overall design reminded him of a conch shell, so it became Fairy Isle.
