And a little bit more .... why do I wake up in the middle of the night and feel compelled to draw?
So ... here I have drawn a few more of my solid lines.
Marked in some ideas in pencil for fillers
some of those pencil filler ideas have been erased (sorry Rick and Maria - using an eraser in this one!) Note: you don't need an eraser to draw Zentangle inspired drawings - there is no eraser in life!
Okay ... you can see how I am trying to get the spherical shapes in the background without them being "drawn" in ... I am using light and dark patterns to give an effect ... also to bring those sweeping lines in - like an illusion. That's the idea anyway ... hope it is working.
You can see how I have used Rick's Paradox tangle in the spiderweb down in the left hand corner - I really like that!
So ... tell me what you think .. I'd love to know!
Cheers for now ... Jane x
It's looking gorgeous and very complex! Thanks so much for sharing the steps... I am new to zentangle and enjoy seeing the process as well as the completed project. I would love to know how or why people choose to fill in certain areas with a specific pattern.
ReplyDeleteJane, these are just gorgeous! You are so multitalented.
ReplyDeleteA big project, but so enjoyable from the look of this one.
ReplyDeleteI love how the 'orb flower' is mirrored at the top of the piece. Breat balance. Paradox is fantastic where/how yoiu have used it
