Ninna's Monotangle Challenge week 14 - IXORUS

Welcome again! And Happy Easter to all my friends once again!

I thought I would have a Monotangle Challenge this week.

Something light after the heavy (!)Easter. I guess you have been eating good food and enjoyed the company of relatives and friends. And maybe your easter isn't over yet, mine isn't. I am free tomorrow too, and maybe I do some work from home tomorrow.
Well, over to the Challenge.

I have chosen String No 43. Thought it looked nice enough :)

 

And the pattern this week is IXORUS, not too difficult.

 

As usual you can find strings and patterns at www.tanglepatterns.com

The best site for us tanglers :)

 

And here is my result:

 

 

Please post your contribute at the end of the blog

in Mr Linky, so that we all can enjoy

each others zentangles.

Thank you!

Challenge # 12 - Monotangle Escalator in Blue

Hello! It is a new week, and here is the new challenge for the week.
I have chosen the pattern Escalator in a monotangle and colored with blue.
The string is #040 from tanglepatterns.com.

Here is the string:

 

 

And here you can find instructions to do the pattern Escalator.
It wasn't so easy as I thought, it took some time to get it right.
I guess you will notice that :)

And here is my finished result after coloring the monotangle in blue. I have used 2 different blue Gelly Roll pens (Sakura) and 2 water color pencils, and the black Unipin 0,1.

 

Hope you enjoy it!

Happy tangling!

Duotangle Week #11-Sugarcane & Jambalee-"Biggify"

Hello!!
I have been so tied up in work, so that's why this challenge is late.
But here it is. The string I have used is No 008.
This week's challenge is a duotangle, and the patterns are Sugarcane and Jambalee.
As  usual you can find the string and patterns here:
www.tanglepatterns.com

Here is the string:

 

This time I want you to try something that is called

to "biggify" the patterns.

That means you should draw the patterns bigger than you normally do.

But within the lines as usual.

It was a challenge to me, I often draw small zentangles which take a lot of time.  And this time I had to biggify them.

Quite useful to learn I think.

 

Here is my finished piece.

 

 

Happy tangling!

Monotangle Challenge week # 10 - Twile/Stoic

Hello !!

The challenge of this week is a bit late because I have been working so much.

Hope you don't mind... :-)

When I saw the pattern Twile/Stoic, I immediately wanted to give it a try.
This time I have not chosen a string.
I have made it easy for me and only followed the instructions at tanglepatterns.com
So it was a challenge for me to.
I had problems with the shading. I realize that I didn't start the shading from the lines, so I got a line of white which messed with my shading. I was too careful when I shaded, not to shade over the line.
That is the reason.
I tried again, and shaded nearer the line. And the places the shade went over the line, I used the eraser :)

Here you can read about how to draw TWILE/STOIC and hopefully give it a try.

http://tanglepatterns.com/2013/03/how-to-draw-twile.html

And here is my result for TWILE/STOIC.

 HAVE FUN!!

Don't forget to post your drawing at the bottom at Mr Linkys.

And leave a comment, please!!

Challenge # 10

I am sorry for the delay, but I am working quite a  lot now.
