Here are days 27 and 28:
I decided to tackle it along with this week's Diva Challenge. I didn't want to play with rainbows and bright disparate colors (as my collection of color pens is paltry) or to have to explain my politics.
So I stuck with a fairly straight forward Zentangle drawing and drew little compartments full of B&W rainbows. It's a little dense overall, but I think the verdigogh pattern still stands out.
I hope I did that project proud.
Lastly, for the week, it is "The String Thing" challenge using a bunch of tangle patterns I've not tried before and one, called river, that is reminiscent of doodles I've done since high school. I think the result looks like a mummy in the center, an attempt at Halloween, perhaps?
Check that blog next week to see what others have done, always beautiful work and nicely curated by Adele Bruno.
yes, that diva challenge tile is terrific. Lots of little rainbows...how fitting! and verdigoh is such a great pattern which you did a real good job on. It's a lovely tile.
ReplyDeleteand I'm with you...my colored pens amount to some cheap markers, which really don't work for this kind of detailed drawing. But! This challenge has me motivated to buy a set of micron pens in colors.
Thank you HeidiSue! I'm glad my attempt at a monochrome rainbow concept caught your eye. I too am trying to upgrade my pen collection. So far I have white, clear and glitter! Have a brilliant day! c
DeleteAll are very beautiful,and full of well chosen tangles.
ReplyDeleteGlad you like my drawings enough to leave a nice comment on them. That you Anne! Have a brilliant day! c
DeleteAll of your Tiles are terrific. I love studying your line work in all of them. Wonderful creative designs. I'm impressed with each of them, and find the second one, with the bulls-eye looking pattern to be very interesting. You made it look easy. My attempts, at this one, bump lines. Practice in order, here. Like Heidi Sue, I too like your Verdigogh pattern very much. Beautifully done. I enjoyed this post very much.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind words, David! I appreciate that you like these drawings but more importantly, specific comments on WHY you like them. That helps me to focus on certain elements and to establish my artistic style. I am particular about the lines being just so! Many thanks and blessings for a brilliant day! c
DeleteAbout String Thing: I just saw it (again) on Adele's blog and I think (mummie or not) that this is gorgeous! I love the way it's winding around.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Anne! I'm glad you like the movement I created. You know this stuff just happens all by itself! Have a brilliant day! c
DeleteAl of them are nice, but I love your string thing, because al the patterns are beautiful drawn and fit lovey together without blanc spaces.
ReplyDeleteCarmela, dank je wel ! Blij dat je mijn vertaling van de ontwerpen . Hebben een schitterende dag ! c
