Diva #176; New tangles and some colour fun.

Always good to have a new type of challenge. Amy Brady presents us with BYOB this week. Bring your own beverage! In other words, your zentangle needs to relate to a drink in some way or other.
I chose to simply dribble some coffe , which I was drinking at the time, onto a tile.  I allowed it to dry of course, then set about to create! I chose to use a red pen and two browns, which are red actually with black added. I worked only on the coffee stain, just veering from it now and again to give an 'airy' feel to it.  Then shaded with coloured pencil in circles, so the colouring itself contained shapes. The design had an organic feel to it as I worked it.  I enjoyed this new approach to a design as it did not have the "locked in" feel of working with a string. Thanks Amy!

NEW TANGLES: Mathura and Soleil.

Technique: Watercolour wash background, micron black #1 , coloured pencils

I am still having fun creating ZIAs for out Facebook swap, Here are some of my latest. These are along a different line to my last 'batch'. I have kept to a monochrome colour scheme and made the effect to be delicate as opposed to bright.

Hope you enjoyed my blog today. Thank you for visiting!
