Each week, the Diva gives us a challenge and sends us to work! This week's challenge was to make a duo-tangle, using the patterns Strircles and Hybrid only. No other patterns, just these two. I started with a zendala - kind of liking these now. Now that I'm not afraid of them anymore! (Thank you, Erin!) It kind of reminds me of this huge star with a lot of little moons circling it! Haha!
Then I pulled out a square zentangle tile and drew this. (I forgot to shade, so I added the shading in photoshop just before I posted this.) The strircle pattern is just determined to remind me of the solar system! I think I'll keep working with this idea of the two patterns. I'm still new at this - I'd like to rev it up and get more detailed and intricate. Coming up with the ideas is the hard part for me! I keep looking online, and studying other artist's work, hopefully the ideas will start coming :). Please visit the Diva's page here to check out the other tiles, and even consider posting one of your own!
Two gorgeous tiles!
ReplyDeleteBoth are super nice. I really like the little bit of color in the second one and the symmetrical feel of the first one.
ReplyDeleteThese are both great. I love the angles and dimension of the first one!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful work, Alice. Linda E.
ReplyDeleteLove them both especially the first. So amazing that the simplest zentangles are the best. PS I love the name of your blog. :)

These came out so simple and strong. You made it look easy while I was struggling to figure it out!

These are both fantastic, Alice! It's hard to do a zentangle with only two patterns! Have fun with your zentangles!

ReplyDeleteI love your zendala and how you adapted hybrid to it!
ReplyDeleteMy fav is the first one - I love the way hybrid works out into the diamonds! Both are bold and beautiful.
