#221 - Beads of Courage.
This is my first entry for The Diva Challenge. I kept it simple because I only came across this art form a fortnight ago. There are some amazing tangles out there :-) I am not happy with the bottom blocked area, the tangle pattern might have looked better drawn vertically. I might try it again, but then 'no mistakes', I expect I can live with it :-)
Hello Yorkshire Tortoise, I'm from Yorkshire too, so welcome to t' Tangle community. I like the mix of patterns you've used here. hope to see more of your work.
ReplyDeleteThank you for taking the time to comment Margeret. What a coincidence that we are from the same county. I was born an East Riding Tyke :-) I am looking forward to learning more about this great artform.
DeleteWelcome! I'm not from Yorkshire ;-) but from the Netherlands and I also like the mix of patterns that you chose!

What wonderful welcomes from everyone, it already feels such a friendly community.
DeleteWow, more challenges, I didn't realise there were more. It is a wonderful idea. I will take a look and see if I might be capable of entering.
Oh, you bet! Try Suzy Mosh's "That's New To Me". Since you're so new, almost ALL the tangles will be new for you!
DeleteGreat tile, love the variety of beads.
ReplyDeleteHoly cow, you are wonderful for such a new tangler! I bet you get totally hooked! The Diva challenges and others out there are such a good way to grow and expand your Zentangle experience. See them as a focus, a personal challenge, and a guide to your experience. Never regard them as competition. Welcome to the Zentangle community!
ReplyDeleteThank you Antonine, yes I really am hooked. I did try the 'That's New To Me' and every tangle I used was new to me:-) I am using the challanges as a learning tool because afterwards I look and see how everyone else has interpreted it. Whilst I can't yet aspire to a lot of what they did it does give me pointers for the future.
DeleteThis is a fun role, full of lovely beads!
ReplyDeleteSimple is often the best way, and you did a great job! Glad you've joined the Zentangle community - keep it up! :)
ReplyDeleteWelcome!!! Great that you found Zentangle, I hope you will enjoy it a lot for a long, long time. Your tile is very pretty! Greeting from the Netherlands.
ReplyDeleteVery lovely tile! And welcome to this wonderful community!
ReplyDeleteI woke up this morning to find all these lovely welcomes. Thank you all for your comments.
