Fractalized Verve
There is just something incredibly gratifying about using a thick 1mm pen to add stripes to Zentangle®!!! I used Verve and applied a 2/3 decreasing rule (to learn more about Fractalizing, visit this page). Fractalizing created a beautiful random-like quality to the piece.
I've been playing with Tiny details for quite a bit, and needed a change, so I created Verve (a tangle deconstructed by JJ LaBarbera here) very bold and large. Here is the line-art before shading:
Before shading, I used a thick 1mm Gracphic 1 pen by Sakura to add stripes and dots. Super fun!
Here is the final picture again after shading with Copic markers and black pencil:
