Challenge #87

This week's challenge is titled "String Theory v. XII: Pinwheels for Peace v.II" and we have to use Pinwheels for Peace as our inspiration. So we could use a pinwheel as our string or create a Zentangle Pinwheel or a Pinwheel Mandala. 

I chose to  use the pinwheel as my string. I have ended up completing three tiles each quite different. I like all for very different reasons.

The first I did was quite simple. Using mainly straight lines.

The next was I feel softer and freer.

Then the final one really evolved in an entirely different way.

Challenge #86

This week the Diva has challenged us to break free and work outside the border. I was really excited to get started as I was looking forward to see how my tiles evolved without the border limits.

Here are two of my tiles. I definitely enjoyed creating these and feel that I need to play a bit more with the concept of outside the border. Hope you enjoy them.

This was my first

This my next one...

I really enjoyed the freedom I allowed myself in this challenge, and to see how the work evolved as I added lines.. so thanks Diva !!

Diva Challenge #85

This week we have been given a challenge to use the UMT; Copada, that was created by CZT Margaret Bremner. This is the first time I have seen or used this tangle so thanks for introducing it.
.

Here are my two tiles.

I definitely enjoyed using it and can see it being a regular in my Zentangles.

I think I now need to go back to those Diva challenges I have missed and try and complete them....especially the UMT or new tangle challenges. I love trying new and different tangles. Perhaps I will create a page here dedicated to those challenges I have missed.... now that's a possibility.

Diva Challenge #84

Its great to be able to join in again in the Diva's Challenges after a reasonably lengthy break.

This week our challenge is to create a  blind string then use tangles to complete it.:  So I closed my eyes and created these two strings.

Apologies about the clearness of the second pic but I didn't check the picture before completing my tile.

So here are the completed tiles. 

Hope you enjoy them.
