The second session of Zentangle MatchMaking series, were we explored a practical tool to help tanglers with classic Zentangle composition, and applied it on the tangle Rumpus. This series is exclusively available for members of my Art Club.
Read MoreOne of my favorite things to do while traveling is to extract urban details, and then use those details in a Zentangle Inspired piece. This one is from details extracted from the local church in Charlottetown, Canada during my recent trip.
Read MoreThe gorgeous Tree of Life video class is now available at my shop for individual purchase. This is a two part advanced video class.
Read MoreContinuing my abstract work, I finished this one featuring Bailarine and Fishskirt (my own tangles) over ink-prepared papers. I love how weird this turned out!
Read MoreThis is what I've been up to during my holiday, abstract tangled art over super bold black and white inked background. Very different from my usual work, but I'm loving the power of black and white and the layered effects.
Read MoreI’ve been taking a much needed vacation (and also healing from a really nasty case of Covid) with zero energy to post pictures. This one I made a few weeks ago for Autangle online challenge, using African Artist (Tina Hunziker) and Kensington (Anoeska Waardenburg).
Read MoreAnother Art Raffle daily meditation picture. This one pulled out Flying Birds String (Margaret Bremner), also Turkital (Jenna Black), Crazy Zander, Peanuckle, Tidings (all three Zentangle), and Spention (Emily Houtz). I LOVE Spention…
Read MoreToday Art Clubbers and I had Part 2 of the super advanced Bucky and Friends class where we added cracks, more line-art and also shaded the piece dramatically. Wow, what a great class, thank you to all who participated!
Read MoreLast week was drawing with some friends - I asked one of them to pick the tangles we would play with and she said - anything with a butterfly! We also used Purk, Bunzo, Eofer (Iris Heidt), Clob (Jem Miller). Super swirly!
Read MoreToday Art Clubbers and I had Part 1 of the super advanced Bucky and Friends class. We used Wyforwings, Bucky Fragment, Ratoon, also Patakon (OsBurSan) and Pickpocket (Tomas Padros). In Part 2 we'll cover more tangling, embellishing and shading!
Read MoreAlways fascinating to see what the Art Raffle daily meditation is going to inspire. In this one I used a particularly complex string, which is hard to work with because it lacks fluidity. Still, was super fun and I love what happened with the ribbons there, Snap!
Read MoreI am always surprised at what comes out of my pen when drawing intuitive art. I don't think this classifies as Zentangle, but it was drawn in the same intuitive and unplanned manner, other than wanting to use a couple of fragments I had drawn on my recipe cards.
Read MoreMany times I sketch little things on cards, fragments and pieces of drawings. I enjoyed the previous Squid over Triradial that I repeated it again, this time using a fragment from one of my sketch cards.
Read MoreAn Art Raffle session a few days ago gave me a Triradial string that I enjoyed very much adding Squid, Ennies, and also Zello. Very light and airy!
Read MoreThis morning I attended a Zentangle session with one of my favorite teachers (and a good friend too), Nancy Domnauer. I love how Nancy stays true to the classic Zentangle method. In her selection of tangles, she brought Zghetti (Nancy Garcia), MI2 (Mimi Lempart), Diva Dance Rock n Roll and Beelight (both by Zentangle).
Read MoreTwo Art Raffle tiles using tangle as a string. The first one used Ziraffe (Carla Jooren) and the second one Nacho (Carol Kis). They turned out quite dark, for some reason!
Read MoreYesterday Art Clubbers and I had a super important class that I am calling “Zentangle MatchMaking”. This class, which will probably become a series, works on answering the questions about how to combine tangles and string when using classic random Zentangle during your own art practice.
Read MoreA couple of weeks ago I participated in a lovely class with Yvonne Westover, where she showed us her fragment Avro. Here I combined it with Jody Genovese's What the Well. Whew, this was tricky! What was I thinking! :-)
Read MoreA new update to the free app Art Raffle, making the total number of cards reach 593! 35 new cards including tangles from Maureen Stott, Kamala Looi and Veronica Vazquez Orozco. Also two stepouts of my own: tangleations Taghball and Fancy Zander.
Read MoreAn Art Raffle session with friends gave me these cards: Amoeba string, Hamsix (Alena Light), Bunzo (Zentangle), A-Frame (Angie Gittles), Eofer (Iris Hedit) and the Fishroe Enhancer (Eni Oken). Fun!
