My name is Ninna, I am a woman, 50 years old, single, and have a daughter 26 yrs old. I live in Sweden. I have 2 dogs, one cat and one bird.I have discovered Art again, I am so happy :) I have created drawings on and off in my life, mostly with graphite pencils and aquarelle colors. I have only a minor education in aquarelle painting at the Swedish Art School, and I have also been teaching aquarelle painting earlier at ABF School, courses for adults and children. When I was much younger I finished a Swedish course called "Lär Dig Teckna" with the Swedish artist Åke Skiöld http://seriewikin.serieframjandet.se/index.php/%C3%85ke_Ski%C3%B6ld. When I was in my thirties some of my paintings were displayed at an exhibition at Länsarbetsnämnden in Stockholm.That is what I have done in brief.I discovered Zentangle by an event, and I fell for it. I love the art form! And I also love doodling, mandalas, zendalas, zia's and a lot more. I work as an accountants assistant with lot of figures all day, and Zentangle is quite similar to mathematics. You have to think a lot about how you should do the zentangle; which patterns, pens, paper you should use, you have to count lines and divide strings etc.You can learn more about zentangle at www.zentangle.com and http://tanglepatterns.com.

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!
