This video recorded class is available at my online shop here. This black and white project class explores the Wrap and Bridge style, something of my own invention where you wrap a couple of string sections forming cones and cylinders.

Here's my second contribution to the To You Tangle 2023 using Flux. I had been recently exploring ways to make Flux more 3D through the use of contour lines, so this was the perfect opportunity to explore this.

Here's my contribution to the To You Tangle 2023 prologue, featuring a radial Pokeroot with funny feathered hats and a starry night inspired by tarot cards. Many thanks to many people who put time and effort organizing this beautiful event!

Playing with various different tangles: Bucky, Ratoon, Opus (all Zentangle), also a serrated version of Wyfore (original also by Zentangle). You also see Pellucidar and a ribbon version of Pickpocket (two last ones by Tomas Padros).

Yesterday Art Clubbers and I had a fun class on Sinkholes, combining Wartz (Genevieve Crabe) and Prestwood (Margaret Bremner) to form an organic and fun mass to shade.

These days I'm pretty obsessed with Wyfore, creating all kinds of tangleations and hybrid versions. Here I used also gray pens (dark and light gray) to form the background and the stripes.

During my recent vacation I was inspired by turtles to use the tangle Bucky. This is a tangle I haven't used very much at all, and it was fun to play with the fragment, which is quite beautiful.

Today Art Clubbers and I worked on Part 2 of the lovely Tree of Life ZIA project. We worked on the frame, background and shading.

In this picture I used a Donut string with tangles Fishskirt, Bronx Cheer Berry, Medusa (Tomas Padros) and a little Damsel Leaf (Annett Ruempler). Turned out pretty fun and rather unusual. I love the shading of it!

Last Thursday Art Clubbers and I worked on Part 1 of the lovely Tree of Life ZIA project. We created the line-art for the tree branches, leaves and flowers. In Part 2 we'll work on the frame, background and shading.

I think we are all a little in love with Tomàs Padro's new tangle Medusa. Here I'm posting two simple tiles where I explored the shading and different ways to construct the underlying ogee grid. I suspect Medusa is going to appear more in my work very soon!

I had a blast making these two pieces combining Wartz (Genevieve Crabe) with Sinkhole and Spherify! The Art Raffle gave me this difficult combination, but it was a fun experiment and I'm super happy with it.

A new update to the free app Art Raffle, making the total number of cards reach 525! Nine new cards for you, especially focusing on 4 tangles by Emily Houtz and two new tangles of my own.

Two pieces with Hollis over a triangular string, sprouting from a fancy triangular fragment. One of them also plays with 3D cuffs over Wyfore. Fun!

Yesterday I taught Art Clubbers how to create this lovely spiral bouquet using Eofer (Iris Heidt), Bronx Cheer, and also a Coiled Berry tangleation of Diva Dance. I had a great time shading this 3-dimensionally.

Last week Art Clubbers and I had a Tangle Play session including Wyfore - where we explore tangles and make index cards - and I decided to combine it with Drawings over a triangular string. Very fun to play with!

I’m still incredibly inspired by project pack 20. In these images I combined Drawings and Myseliam (and some other stuff too). Can't get enough of these Blossom tangles.

A Tree of Life is a widely adopted symbol of knowledge and life. Here I used a twisted Diva Dance, Hollis, Moon Pie, Cat Kin (Lonetta) and Tree Leaf (Debbie New). What a great project!

The title of the post may sound strange, isn't all Zentangle intuitive? In this experiment I used a much more complex and intuitive string combined with a gray micron pen on two different pictures, with varied degrees of success. I came to an interesting conclusion, though.

Yesterday I taught a much awaited class on how to create these Fancy Caps. It was a long class, where we learned about gems, how to draw the fancy caps and developed this lovely ZIA project.
