Happy Fall, Y'All

So I am finally done with all the fall ATCs for the swap. This was a really hard one for me, I had trouble finding my niche. So to speak. I finally just gave up on fall designs, and went with fall colors. I've been looking over some tangles I don't use very often, and noticed that golven and twing are very similar. I like the way they combine in this ATC. This last one is heading out to the United Kingdom. Traveling a long way! Now, on to the brown/black swap! I think I have 15 more of those to do!

Rollin'

I am working on the ebook. Again. Drawing, designing, experimenting, making step-outs. This particular piece is an ATC that I made for the fall swap. (I just realized - again - that I was supposed to stick with three tangles. Oh well.) I was playing with crescent moon, which turned into that far right slice with the squiggle down the middle. I am thinking of variations I could use with that - and call it rollin'. That's what I'm working on now. 

The colors were the most fun part of this piece for me. I just took a wet, flat brush, swirled some watercolor on it, and swiped it back and forth across a slightly damp tile. I did this with about six different colors and let them blend together a bit. Once it was dry, I started my tangling. Someone in the United Kingdom is getting this ATC. Rollin' out in the mail tomorrow!
