Black Water

Really just playing around with some of my favorite tangles. There are two of them that I don't even know the names of, but I use them often. So, I should probably figure that out!

And once again, I realized that I forgot to shade. Shading really does make an incredible difference, adding depth and dimension. Some of the shading is done with a pencil and tortillion. Other parts are shaded with a light grey colored Pitt artist pen. At this point I probably couldn't tell you which is which. You should get your pen and tile out and draw something. You'll be glad you did!

Pink Cognito

I really like this new pattern ziggy by Judy West! It's nervy and lots of fun to draw.  I just really felt like drawing circles - so here it is - Pink Cognito. Totally done with microns - no, I did not use my watercolor pencils - hahaha! So it is possible to go without for one time. Patterns - wiggle worms, ziggy, portholes, chevron, and a variation of my own hached. You should 'like' Judy's FB page - Judy's CreativeDoodling - and have a look at her work!

String 010 at Tangle Patterns. Com

Here is the string we got at Tangle Patterns this week. It was shared by Anne Marks.

This is what I did with it. The watercoloring was fun - splashing some paint around :). Then I tried out a couple new, mixed with a couple old, patterns: camelia, ziggy, cruffle, dangles, and crescent moon. This was a lot of fun! I am working on a steampunk drawing now, using this string. To grab this string and get to tangling visit Tangle Patterns here.
