Some of my Favorite Tangle Patterns
Thanks to all the artists out there who have graciously created step-outs! These are some of my favorites. The Images redirect to stepouts on the web. If you find a better link or a discrepancy, contact me so I can update this page!
This section is divided by Structure. Some tangles fit into more than one category.
Blossom
Stand alone, focal element, strong presence.
Leaf
Stand alone, stem from a base, secondary focal.
Vine
Stem from a base, branches out, floral quality.
Edge/Weed
Sprout along an edge, repetitive.
Organic Filler
Fills spaces organically and chaotically, random.
Grid
Follows a structured grid, orderly.
Ribbon
Follows a path, structured, repetitive.
