Another Artful Wednesday

It's been unusually simple around here lately. It's not rained so the dogs aren't tracking in a bunch of mud. Ruby's started shedding and I do have huge clouds of fluffy white fur deposited here and there around the house, but that's not a big deal. I don't know how the chore list got so light, but I'm certainly not going to complain! It's just left me all the more time to tangle and you know that makes me happy!!

First up was the Diva's Weekly Challenge #71, which was to include a new tangle pattern, Pea-Nuckle (see the lower right hand corner...) This one took me a couple days to sort out and I'm not 100% happy with it, but it's not too bad, either--there are some things I kinda like about it...


Then I found a Zentangle Inspired Art group on Yahoo, and their weekly challenge was to work with Mooka (the loopy, hearty kinda parts...) I had fun with this one today!


And below is an A inspired design for my friends, the Arps, who have been there above and beyond for Michael and I this year--I just wanted to do something special for them to remember us by after we move...

And there you have it--my tangles for the week! The rest of the week is a looking a little busier, but I'm hoping to get in some tangle time as I can....we shall see! Of course, I did jump back in to the Song of Fire and Ice with Storm of Swords today...it's so good to be back in Westeros once more! So...if you don't hear from me, I'm somewhere lost in the Seven Kingdoms! Do Not Disturb...

  1. I think you should be very happy with your pea-knuckle because it has depth of line, and real character in your tile, also it fits in perfectly with your tile design. Very nice!

  3. Beautiful tiles, all of them! Looks like you've mastered pea-nuckles. I'm still working on mine, trying to get it right.

  4. All three are very beautiful! Your pea-nuckles is much better then mine, but I keep on trying.

  6. All of your tiles are lovely (I am a sucker for mooka). I think you have done an amazing job working pea-nuckle into the your tile so it blends with the other tangles. Beautiful.

  8. Beautiful tiles! The third one reminds me of a clown. I see his face on the top of the right side.

  10. I agree with all of the comments. I think your pea-nuckle is very good, and I like the tangles you chose to go with it. The zendala is great and I'm going to go looking for that group. And the Initial A tile you did is fantastic. Very artsy, and what a special gift.
