Tangled Obsession.

How can such a simple practice such as Zentangle so quickly become an object of obsession? When I'm not Zen-doodling in my sketchbook, working on a new tile, maybe going back and tinkering with a piece that I thought was finished, or practicing one of the hundreds of tangle patterns, I find myself pouring over the thousands of photos other Zentanglers have posted online, or seeing patterns everywhere I look. :-)

Over the weekend I played around a bit with using watercolor pencils. Here is the result. I'll show you both the before and after. I must have put the colored pencil down to heavy, because the color is heavy even after the water wash. I see more experimentation in my future.
