Rainbow Shading Lesson Part 5

Yesterday members of my Art Club and I FINALLY finished the last Part of the Rainbow Shading course, creating a sampler with tons of tangles and applying everything we learned about shading in color with colored pencils.

We had started the project on Part 4, so we continued right where we left off, starting with the tangle Toodles (Zentangle).

We then proceeded to color shade toodles using the same pencils that we had selected during Part 4.

We repeated the process with tangles Shattuck, W2 and Cadent, all by Zentangle.

We finalized the project by adding Tunnelvizion (Jody Genovese) and learning how to create the background with color variation.

Here's a close-up of the final project:

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.

During my last cruise we stopped briefly in Casablanca, Morocco. I took tons of pictures of historic buildings and this one detail caught my eye, I adapted it as string for this piece. Tangled and shaded with Inktense pencils and Pitt Artist brush pens.

Back in 1998 I went to Bali and it was an enchanting place for someone who enjoys ornament and patterns. I extracted the outline of a photo I took back then and used it as a string for this piece. Turned out a little whimsical, almost Seussian. You can see a couple of critters happily playing here and there.

This is a picture that I created while aboard my last cruise crossing the Atlantic. Before crossing westbound we visited Santa Cruz de Tenerife in the Tenerife Islands, and I captured some of the details of the beautiful Parish of St. Francisco de Asís. I have to confess that this picture feels a bit “too pink” for my taste!
