Weekly Challenge #3


Our Task this week was to draw a string with our eyes wide Shut! Yikes! Inspired by the excellent result our challenge host, Laura had from her string… where she found that if you persevere success can be achieved, I blindly forged ahead (literally). This tile is the result. It’s not my favorite Zentangle ever, but I was impressed with the way I could make something out of a really crummy string (I draw much better with my eyes open). Wish I had taken a picture of the string... it was rather lame. It was a fun experience, give it a try.

  3. Hi Joni, the lines around this one are just great! The perfect 'background' pushing the rest of the design forward. So far all the tiles I've seen in this challenge are pretty organic. I wonder if that's because our 'subconscious' minds are more comfortable with organic forms? Very flowing - the whole tile. ♥ it. ☺

  7. Nice stuff Joni...I was reading Kit's comment how she feels the lines push the design forward...my first view was that it created an almost cushioning effect and the central design is 'snuggling' inside :) You've done a great job to allow for mixed interpretations. I love your use of Betweed and the lovely wriggly wormy things on the right :D

  13. Love those lines that draw your eye in to where the fun is! I see the flower but feel a trumpet or horn playing in there. Love it!
