Following my workshop at LLinda's Card & Craft shop yesterday afternoon I can now say that I have attempted Zentangle drawing... as to if I am any good, well I will leave you to decided what you think.
 |
| We started with a flower shape and practiced different designs on each section. |
 |
| Next we moved onto using a Peel-Off as the basis of the design. The flower & leaves were coloured and then the background filled with Zentangle designs. |
 |
| Our next attempt was using a Stencil for the outline (I then divided mine into 4 smaller sections), the designs on this card were created using a white gel pen on black card. |
 |
| Things then started to get complicated... using a Woodware Stamp for the image, I used both Red & Green pens to create the Zentangle designs. |
The creation of these 3 cards and flower sample did take time and a lot of concentration. I did find that if I did not take regular breaks to look away from the paper I did get 'cross eyed' LOL.
At the time I was not too keen on any of the cards, however looking back at them today I do like the Flower Sample and the Vase.
I guess that at all times we are our own worst critique. I do think I will give Zentangle designs another go, but I don't think that they will be big projects.
Hello Helen... well I have to say my fave it the last card the poppy looking one with the red and green... I would be very happy to receive it.
ReplyDeleteAnd I am sure with practice you will get lots better... although they all look good from here..
