Working in Tangle Starts Treasures #tanglestartstreasures #artangleology

I'm loving this book right now!

Tangle Starts Treasures

is my newest book,

just two weeks old and it is still showing 

at the top of the hot new release list!

This is so exciting!!!

Thank you to each of you who have

made this possible!!!

 Amazon's site shows you some of the inside

pages now, but it doesn't show you the

heart of the book.

I don't get any say in which pages they show,

or I would be showing you some of these.

These pages are full of blank boxes,

waiting for you to fill-in with some of your

favorite step-outs.

 Step-outs?

That's tangle talk for step-by-step instructions

for drawing tangle patterns.

Treasures has enough room for 376+ complete

step-outs of your choosing.

 At the bottom of each step-out page

is a blank box in which you can create

a piece of art using the patterns from 

that page. 

 The name Tangle Starts Treasures implies a host

of exciting tangly things so I have included

other fun stuff in this book for you as well!

Here is a glimpse of the back cover

(prior to Amazon sticking an ISBN box

in that lower section.)

Lots of fun and storage and organization

to be had with 

Tangle Starts Treasures.

Want to pick up a copy?

It is available here. 

Need a tangly place to hang out and learn?

I admin a happening Facebook group called

Tangle All Around.

We are an active group of friendly tanglers

who help each other learn and advance our

skills.

Tomorrow we start INKtober, a project

to get us putting ink to paper and drawing

every day during the month of October.

Shhhh!!!

I'll let you in on a secret that the group

doesn't know about.

Throughout the month of October I am going

to be holding some flash giveaways!

They won't be announced until they happen and 

they will only be open for around 5-6 hours each.

If you would like to join us, come knock on 

the door and I'll let you in.

Playing With the Procreate App #procreate #digitalart

 I finally got brave enough to charge my

Apple Pencil and check out the Procreate

app on my iPad. 

So much fun!!!

My friend Cindy got me started and this is

what I made in the symmetrical setting.

I honestly don't recall how I added the

shading. I am hoping I can figure that out

the next time I try. 

Hahahahaha!

For this one I imported a page from my

Tangle Starts book. Everything you see in the

 background is actually a gelli plate pull I made

using a stencil. I imported it into Procreate

and used the technical pencil and the gel pen

to add some floral designs.

Kind of quick, spent about 10 minutes figuring

it out. I do love it!

 This is part of an art piece I made at Robin Mead's

class back in July. I did a quick screen shot of a portion

of it, imported it into Procreate, and added some

tangles with my Apple Pencil. 

I even figured out how to draw them in color. 

Then I started over with the same picture before

tangles, and clicked a link called 'automatic.'

When I touched the pen to the color in the photo -

this is what happened!

Cool!

No idea why, but I love it!

I am easily amused.

I promise I will be learning more about this

app and will keep showing you my fun results.

Heheheheheh!
