this weeks challenge is all about the tangle "BETWEED",
a monotangle is a good reason to trie a black tile, i don't do that often.
i really liked it, especially when i added some blue with the colourpencil.
to see what other tanglers posted for this challenge, or to see the step- out for this nice pattern, click here, this pattern is created by the founders of zentangle, maria thomas and rick roberts.......wonderful teachers, wonderful people.
and then:
i had to trie an other black tile with a pattern i just discovered.
i found it on an amazing vase carved in alabaster.
please leave a message, if you know a similar pattern, and the name of it. i'm quiet shure that there is, especially because on the weekly challenge #186 "leaves" was the exercise.
till i hear from you, i call it:
"alabastro"
and the step-out gonna follow.
Beautiful tile with the touch of blue! Really gave it a lovely look! Your alabastro is lovely too. I will wait patiently for the step outs! :)
AntwortenLöschenI love what a difference the coloured pencils made on the black tile! I think I might try that and it may help me actually use the black tiles I have accumulated. Both of these are exquisite!
AntwortenLöschenBoth tiles are beautiful, I like the colour especially on alabastro...looking forward to the step-outs.
AntwortenLöschenTwo beauties.
AntwortenLöschenSuch a beautiful Betweed Challenge Tile, Akua. Love the design and your shading and color are wonderful. Your leaf tile is masterful. The coloring is unbelievable. I just love both of these Tiles. Well done.
AntwortenLöschenWow! Love the use of colour on the black. I shall have to give that a try. Doesn't Betweed look different when it is spikey? So cool.
AntwortenLöschenThe Betweed tile is more then beuatiful, it's also quite elegant!!! Your new tangle is also great!
AntwortenLöschenReally love your first tile, it's beautiful!
AntwortenLöschenTwo very nice tiles and both so different.
AntwortenLöschenBeautiful colors.
AntwortenLöschenThe leaves remind me of "leaflet " on alittlelime.blogspot
Check it out and see what you think.
wendy,thank you. one of my swiss-CZT- friends said the same. the look is similar, the step-out very diffrent. i think i gonna contact alittlelime, because i just think it's interesting to know,when do we say "it's a new pattern"?
AntwortenLöschenBoth tiles are absolutely gorgeous! The colours are awesome and your leves are beautiful. I must say I too though it was from Helen Wiliam's blogspot before reading your post. However, most of these patterns we claim are "new" have existed for ages, we're just rediscovering them.
AntwortenLöschenBeide sehen einfach wunderbar auf dem schwarzem Papier aus! Einfach großartig!
AntwortenLöschenit really gives happyness, to see that people look at my blog. thank you for the comments and have a nice week.
AntwortenLöschenThe color pencil on the black is just striking!
AntwortenLöschenHow lovely! You have inspired me to try that colored pencil technique on the black. Yours are just stunning!
