Triangles are prevalent on this striped string tile, along with some wavy curtains, some ribbons and other things. The only tangles I actually recognize are Arukas in the background and Opus in the triangle (both Zentangle). The rest are bits and pieces borrowed from my previous studies or pieces.

Read MoreA few weeks ago one my friends suggested a “skyline” string over a mass of water. I used mooka3d, Alfie (Angie Gittles), Nik (Bunny Wright) and Dillo-tant (Lisa Goldman). I wonder if the buildings are emerging or submerging? :-)
Read MoreYesterday Art Clubbers and I started a new project called Small Treasures, using black and white tangling and distressed tiles. This uses the concept of Encapsulated Tangles (an enhancer of my own), where a tangle is represented by a few fragments and abundant use of Edgework to form a tight, 3D nugget.
Read MoreTwo weeks ago I got together with some friends and one of them suggested a string in the shape of intertwined vines. Tangles used were A-dalfa (Bunny Wright), Northshire (Jody Genovese), Finery and Meer (Zentangle) and Copino (my own). I love how 3D this turned out!

Read MoreAnother session of Zentangle MatchMaking series. We explored a great deal of pattern structure theory which can help tanglers to create better compositions during classic Zentangle sesssions. Meer, Fife and Verve were the tangles used in our session. This series is exclusively available for members of my Art Club.

Read MoreHere’s a monotangle using Verve (JJ LaBarbera) with many of the bells and whistles enhancements covered in my recent workshop Verve Timeline at Fall Tangle. I love the comparison with the “before and after”, really makes a huge difference. #vervetimeline
