Quandry

It is the second last week of February.  Anxious to be out in the garden, I spin and tangle, staying warm by the fire on this chilly, damp day.  The Diva challenge this week is to explore the use of a tangle called Quandry, little triangles of rice pellets, repeated over and over, magically forming flower shapes.  I  just learned that Laura's grandmother passed away today and the challenge has been cancelled.  I'm so sorry about your grandma Laura and thankful you were able to spend some time with her at the end.

Here is my Zentangle exploring the use of Quandry, in memory of Laura's grandma.

Year of the Water Snake

The Diva challenge this week was to draw a zentangle snake in celebration of The ChineseYear of the Water Snake which started on February 9. After drawing the diva dance water, I realized it was too busy and ended up shading it.  Snakes offer up all kinds of interesting possibilities!

Birthday Bookmark

This week's Diva Challenge is to use the tangle pattern DANSK, created by Margaret Bremner.  I've created a book mark for a special guy who will be celebrating his birthday soon.  I'm still working on getting the lettering right.
