Something New is Coming

This blog post needs a photo. 

Hahahaha!

You have been patient and listened to me rant

and be upset about Blogger.

For months!

About not being able to receive comments,

or make replies to your comments,

having to respond as a 'guest' and

having to approve my own comments but

rarely seeing yours. 

Well it is about to end.

We have been working on setting up a new blog

and will be going live with it hopefully in the next week.

Watch here at the top of the feed for information.

Hopefully all of you who subscribe by email

will automatically transition over and not

need to do anything.

Still trying to iron that out.

Better days are coming, folks!

You just wait and see!

Day 13 of Inktober and 31 Products Challenge #inktober #inktober2018 #31productschallenge #hahnemühle

 A lot has happened since I posted last.

My computer died.

Bought a new computer. 

Book publisher died.

Looking for a new book publisher.

Blog commenting isn't my fault.

Blogger is messed up.

Looking for a new blogging site. 

Is that how you spell "site?"

Back to art-ing.

Above is day 13 of Inktober, 2018.

The tangle pattern was a new one to me,

a fun one with lots of flexibility.

From Eni Oken - it is called zello. 

Tangled on a Hahnemühle YouTangle.art Tile

with a Zensations Technical Pen

from Zebra Pens. 

Love it all!

 And we move on to day #13 of the

31 Products Challenge!

I did do some work on this each day

this month, I just haven't posted them

all here. There will be a massive

post at the end of the project.

Promise, with lots of photos!

Today I used Caran D'Ache Neocolor

Watersoluble pastels to make marks.

Circles, lines, smudges.

It was highly satisfying. 

Hahahaha!

Close up of a small section.

Those purple circles are what I added today.

No idea at all where I will be going with

this next. But I know it will be fun!

Days 10, 11 and 12 of Inktober #hahnemühle #zebrapenusa #inktober #inktober2018 #inktobertaa

I am having major computer issues, among other

issues, hahaha! but we are slowly working our

way back around to the light.

I hope. 

Above you see a Hahnemühle YouTangle.art Tile

that has been watercolored with Tombow brush

pens. I used a Zensations Technical Pen

from Zebra Pens for the tangling. 

Plain graphite for shading and a white

gelly roll pen for highlights. 

So much fun!

The tangles are quaddy, nymph

and nymbis. Two of the three are

brand new to me and I loved them!

Need a place to hangout for Inktober?

Head on over to Tangle All Around on

Facebook and I'll add you to the group.

Many of our members are participating

and posting their first pieces of art in the

group. And it's all beautiful!

Commenting on blogger is no longer working.

Thank you!

Days 8 and 9 of Inktober #hahnemühle #zebrapen #inktober #inktober2018 #inktobertaa

I am falling behind on Inktober. 

Blog issues, book issues, computer issues, 

new computer issues.

It's been a messed up last 4 days!

This tile was for October 9th, which was yesterday.

Again I used the Hahnemühle YouTangle.art Tiles

for both these days.

The color on this one came from Zebra Pens'

beautiful mildliners. 

I used them like watercolor - which worked

wonderfully!

The tangle is a relatively new one called

PeelD.

I threw in some printemps because . . .

why not?

 Here is day 8.

Working backwards.

The color came from Twinkling H2Os,

a product that originally came out about

20 years ago and still works great today.

For both these tiles I used a 

Zensations Technical Pen from Zebra Pens 

to do the tangling.

Patterns on this one are:

peeks, ripped screen, tipple

and printemps. 

Want to join us for Inktober?

My Facebook group Tangle All Around

are working through the month together.

I am really pleased with the number of

people participating and all the beautiful

and inspired work they are posting.

It is really just awesome and amazing!

You can come see what I mean

by clicking here.

Technical Pens?

And please come back tomorrow.

In between installing a new computer,

moving all the files over, trying to find a 

new publisher, and possibly even a new

blogging site -

maybe I will be able to fit in a tile.

Because I am now behind.

The struggle is real.

Bwahahahahahaha!

Note: as much as I'd love to hear from you,

the comment function of my blog no longer

works. Why? Your guess is as good as mine,

because we have been working on it literally

for a couple months. Just know you are loved

and appreciated! 

Days 6 and 7 of Inktober #inktober #inktober2018 #inktobertaa #hahnemühle #31productschallenge #zebrapenusa

 Really happy with the way this tile turned out!

I made the background color with 

Ranger Distress Ink pads,

just kind of scrubbed them around on the paper.

That would be a YouTangle.art Tile from

Hahnemühle.

(And they are working out great for this Inktober!)

The patterns I tangled are O-cee and Onamato.

Just the two.

I thought they worked very well with the

beautiful colors in the background.

I used a Zensations Technical Pen from Zebra Pens.

They work great on these tiles,

and on top of the distress inks.

We are doing Inktober together as a group

over on Facebook at

Tangle All Around.

Want to join us?

It isn't too late - 

it isn't too late until it's November -

join us here.

Want to pick up some of these awesome

YouTangle.art Tiles?

You can do that here. 

 Another program I am working with this October

is the 31 Products Challenge.

The thought is to pull all those art supplies

out of the closet - you know we all have them -

and use a different product each day this month.

I am working on a 12" x 24" art canvas.

Above is what I did on day 6.

(I think I am working too hard and fast and will

be done before day 31 is here.

Ranger Distress Ink pads.

Used them to scuff up those collage pieces

and swipe some color here and there.

Interested?

You can check out the 31 Products Challenge here.

I am in another group on Facebook called

ATC Trades and Jams.

One of the events going on right now

is the letter D swap.

We make 2 ATCs to trade with someone in the

group - based on the letter D.

This shows the bare bones of my ATC.

I will show you the original after it makes

its way to its new owner. 

Just a reminder - if you try to leave a comment

and I don't reply it is because blogger is not

sending me notifications of comments

and they are not showing up in the 

moderation area of the blog. 

I still love you!

I just can't tell you.

Oh wait, I just did!

Have a great day!

Ultimate Frustration

Migraine alert.

If you have been leaving comments

and I haven't been responding

it is because I no longer receive them

and we do not know why.

For months we have been working on 

this and have not made any progress.

Please be patient.

And if you don't hear from me soon

it means I banged my head on the table

one time too many.

And too hard. 

Day 5 Inktober and It's Getting a Little Harder #inktober #inktober2018 #hahnemühle #zebrapenus

It's getting a bit harder to keep up with both

challenges I am doing.

Got a little carpal tunnel stuff going on with

my drawing hand.

In a brace right now and taking it easy,

other than making this post. 

Day 5's tangle is Dazl.

Got to say this one doesn't do anything for me.

I opted to keep the design minimal

and I think it was effective.

Makes me dislike dazl a little less this way.

Hahaha!

Sorry, Diana. 

I used a Hahnemühle YouTangle.art Tile,

some Distress Ink from Tim Holtz, 

a Zensations Technical Pen from Zebra,

a white Gelly Roll from Sakura,

and that is pretty much it.

Minimal.

I admin a Facebook group called

Tangle All Around

and we are working through Inktober together.

Care to join us?

You can by clicking here.

You can purchase some Hahnemühle

YouTangle.Art Tiles here. 

And the Zensations line of pens here. 

Day 4 Inktober #hahnemühle #inktober18 #zebrapenus

Day 4 of Inktober brings me back to another

Hahnemühle YouTangle.art Tile and my

Ranger Distress Ink pads.

That background color is the distress ink.

I used Derwent Inktense watercolor pencils

to shade and add the green.

Apparently you can't see all that green

bleedover when the tile is actually its

 normal size of 3.5" and not how it shows

on this screen. 
Tangling was done with a Zensations
Technical Pen from Zebra Pen.

Hahahaha! Oh well!

Oh! The tangles are:

rixty and viola.

Don't have a place to hang out for Inktober?

Come on over to my Facebook group

Tangle All Around

where we are doing Inktober together.

We would love for you to join us.
