Diva Challenge #177, more colour.

Carolyn Broady CZT designed a tangle called "Truffle", and has asked us to use it this week in challenge #177. Currently I have lots of coloured backgrounds around, so, as one was just next to me where I sat to create the ZIA, I just had to use it! I also touched it up with some new Copic Ciaos.

I've been showing you some work on watercolour backgrounds for a current swap I'm involved with. I have the 'bug' so much that I thought I would try a composite (9 tiles together). Here's a sample of one without the tangles and 2 with tangles.




They're a bit bluey as the light wasn't as good as I thought it was.

Yesterday we had thick fog descend on us late afternoon. I took some photos, it was so amazing.
 Last weekend my husband, daughter and I went for a few days to Torquay in Victoria, of which any surfer will know about as it contains the famous Bell's Beach. Famous for world championships. The sea was as calm as a millpond when we were there!
Opposite the hotel where we stayed was an awesome aboriginal style massive mosaic, so I have a few shots of that too. Hope you enjoy my gallery!

    What an entry. So much good stuff. Love your Truffle Piece. Your Truffle's are as a dream sequence, the way they dance around each other and connect in such creative ways. Awesome color. Your photographs are beautiful. I appreciate your sharing them. I agree with Didisch on the Fog pictures.

    Your Truffle tile has an almost psychedelic look. Must be the neon colors. Love it. Your pictures are great. Love when the fog comes in like that and covers things. Is a beautiful scene.
