Duotone Tangling Class now available in video
The beautifully poetic class Duotone Tangling is now available in video format for individual purchase. This video class includes how to use a “landscape string” and how to create contrast using two inking pens of different colors. It also shows how to use grafting and how to organicize tangles to make them resemble plants.
The class shows how to make tangles into a wrapped branch:
Here are some examples of crazy plants using similar approach:
After the foreground pieces were made we created the background using foreshortening techniques:
We also worked on the shading of the background:
Here is the final picture after all the shading was completed, using tangles Dillo-tant (Lisa Goldman), Moonpie, Tipple and Bales (Zetangle):

Another picture based on a historic photo I took in Santa Monica, CA, 1999. Unfortunately I did not register exactly where it was taken. It seems to have a Romanesque feeling - obviously as a revival, since that style appeared around 11th century. I did not try to reproduce the picture accurately, but instead used as inspiration for a stylized version. Drawn using Inktense paint pencils and Pitt brush pens with a waterbrush.
