Duotone Tangling Class and Pop-up

Last Thursday the Art Clubbers and I had a very fun class on how to create this landscape ZIA using two different tones of inking pens. We started by using a composite string:

We then developed the main “plants” using Organicize techniques such as “make into a branch” and grafting:

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):

At the end of the class I had a surprise for the clubbers, a pop-up that I made using similar visual language to the piece:

Here are a couple of shots from the pop-up:
