Challenge #164

Today 22 April it's  "Earth day".
And the challenge for this week is to make something for this day.

Challenge #163

As I already expected one of this weeks the challenge is to use Rixty, the new tangle of Zentangle.
I combined it with another tangle of witch I can not find the name anymore.
Here's what I did.

I drew it on very white paper, but the scanner makes it look grey.

Challenge #162

For the challenge of this week we should us our initials as the string.
A lovely but difficult challenge, but I'm OK with the result.

Warped Eggs combination
A circle of Warped Eggs with Sanquin and Dark Sepia `Pitt Artist pens` and a white Gelly Roll.
Shaded it with colored pencils.
Drawn on Elefantenhaut paper.

Challenge # 161

"In a Quandary about Quandary"

Is the challenge for this week.

I love Quandary, it's a great tangle to fill empty spaces.

It makes me think of Tripoly a lot.

Here's what I did with it.

I used my new Faber Castell fineliners in Sanguin and Sepia.

Shaded it with colored pencils.

Challenge #160

This weeks challenge is to use a spiral as your string.
I did this one some time ago but I think it's perfect for this challenge.

Bloemenwals

Misschien nog een paar schaduwen, (weet ik nog niet zeker)  maar dan is hij af.
Ik noem hem de Bloemenwals.
Links onder de eerste regel uit de partituur van de Bloemenwals van Tchaikovski.
I ben dol op zijn Ballet muziek.

Maybe some more shadows. (I'm not shore yet) but than it's finished.
I call it The Walz of Flowers.
Left under you will find the first line of the Walz of Flowers by Tchaikovski.
I love his Ballet music.

               detail

           The colors are much more bright on the real drawing.

Challenge # 159

I am working on a bigger ZIA (40 X 40 cm.) for the show next week Saturday so I do not have so much time for the challenge.
But this weeks challenge is about St. Patric's day.
I do not know much about that, in The Netherlands we don't celebrate it.
But I know that green is the color for it.
And because I'm using green in this Zia I thought I can show what I'm working on as a contribution for the challenge.
There's still a lot of work, but if it's finished I will show the complete ZIA.

Have you seen my other 40 X 40 ZIA here.
