Be Well 2024 White Base Pop-up
I'm participating in the Zentangle BeWell2024 event. Instead of using triangular tiles, I created these white base pop-up cards using almost exclusively triangular V-folds, one tangle a day on each v-fold.
I made two cards. The main challenge of this project was to make something that would flatten out completely so that I can draw over it after the pop-up is constructed.
Here is a little video clip of the two white base cards:
The first card measures only 4x6 inches and is folded in half.
You can see that the card can be completed flattened to be easier to draw on:
Here’s a little step-out of how it was constructed:
And here you can see Days 1 through 3 already added to the card:
Here is the second card, constructed over a larger base, so it's a bit more impressive.
Once the cards are completed, I'll post more here on my blog.

This picture was made largely adapted from a fragment of Gothic architecture I found in Richard Glazier’s Manual of Historic Ornament (archive dot org). I combined three primary colors with black ink, and shaded and colored using inktense pencils.
