Maryhill

Well, as Joey says in her Weekly Challenge, this is a very interesting tangle and great to use in a Monotangle. I drew the first segment and I thought, "no, this can't be right" but then as I went further the eye started to see the windmill shape and it appeared out of nowhere. I loved drawing this and will definitely use it again.

For the smaller circle I used the Derwent Graphik Sepia Pen and for the larger circle I used the Micron Sepia pen. For those of you who read my post last week comparing pens, this is the difference in colour that I mention between the two pens. Although they are both labeled Sepia, I consider the Micron sepia to be very dark. (I know colours on different computers are not as in real life, but you will be able to clearly see there is a marked difference between the two).

  1. Well you are off to a fast start this morning! I love the two overlapping Maryhills. I'm so glad that you enjoyed the tangle, I was hoping people would like it as much as I did when I first tried it.
    Thanks for participating!

  3. Lovely, YT!! To be honest I peeked at yours to get an idea of what it really looked like so I could think :) :) Pens and all materials are often different in various brands ... the contrast looks nice here :)

  4. I love the contrasting colors. And thanks for discussing the Sepia issue. I've scratched my head over that one. Bought a whole set of sepia Sakura pens only to realize that what I really wanted was plain old brown! I will look for the Derwik pens now!
