Tag: Zentangle

This may have been the point when I learned Bronx Cheer. It’s that berry-looking one in the middle, and it’s the tangle that lets you color over things you don’t like.

More meetings! I like how I carried the curved lines through different sections.

In this one, I was shading the same tangle in different ways.

I can also tell that the above is a homemade tile. Bit of a cutting error at the top.

Here’s another one with same tangle, different shading. More successful, I think.

This is much larger than real life, it’s the artist trading card size. I did it during a long meeting at work. Also, I have glasses now, and still this is out of focus! Grrr.

I asked Matt if he wanted to do a fun advent project, the Advent of Tess, where we fold Origami Tessellations every day. Matt said yes, I’ve been going through the Foundations course. It’s kind of a lot, complicated by the fact that I’ve been using brown kraft paper, which I first must cut to size.

But here I have completed one of the first foundations projects, an example of pleat reordering. I had to have Matt help me, but I got it done. This is a 32×32 grid, which is a lot to fold before you even get to the pleat reordering.

I messed up in the middle; the horizontal middle band is supposed to be 2 grids, not three, but other than that, I did it. Onto the next thing.

This one looks a little like a map in the back of a fantasy novel.

Here are two more Zentangles. Because May is mental health month, they are having a tangle along. They are using their triangular tiles. I don’t have those, so I’m using triangular-type shapes on the artist cards.

I’m also experimenting with a new way to add my initials to my tiles.

I’ve been up for doing the artist card size of Zentangles, and here are two of my latest.

Here is a nice tangle with some old favorites and a new one. It was a good middle-of-the-night task when I couldn’t concentrate on my book.

This is my last Zentangle in the series. I did a lot of my tangling while waiting for Sentinel to eat his meals. He died, and that time went away . I would like to pick it up again in the future.

I especially enjoyed the more organic tangles I’ve been learning. The top left is Verdigogh, and the top right is Locar. Lower left is Yincut, and lower right is my new favorite Bales.

Here we have Onamato (left side), Printemps (swirly), Flux (the plant looking one) with a bit of Fescu on the top of the Flux, Isosohor (to the right of Flux), Nipa (upper right) and the always reliable Festune (lower right corner)

I really liked learning Crazy Huggins (the interwoven thing on the left). I wasn’t as enamored of my attempt at Chainging on the right side of the tile.

Here’s an overview of all my Project Pack No. 1 tiles. It was a super fun project.
