Well, well, well...

I really do enjoy being part of the Zentangle community. Everyone generously shares their art and support. Earlier this week I posted one of my first pieces in response to The Diva's challenge #135. You can see that effort here.  I just wasn't happy with how it turned out and asked other tanglers  for advice.  Fellow Zentanglers shared thoughtful feedback. All week I've taken the posted advice and continued to play with the new tangle "Well." My favorite aspect of the Diva's weekly challenge is seeing the unique ways that each tangler approaches the task. For example, check out this post from A Little Lime. She had the idea to randomize placement of the dots as well as use a freehand approach to the pattern. You can see her steps here. This is my ZIA using the random dot technique. I did not use a string, I also let my work bleed off the edges of the tile.

  2. Thank you Meghna and LonettA....now that you mention it I agree that what was supposed to be unconnected "Well" looks more like flowers. HA it would have been easier to draw flowers in the first place.

  3. The background is the lid to a shoe box. I was delighted to see that it is covered with patterns. I usually throw away shoe boxes, but decided to hang on to this one for inspiration. :-)
