Our Diva set an interesting challenge this week, which was to trace some shapes onto the tile to use as our string, then tangle as you wish. I had fun with this, and found some things lying around, as it were. Here I have used a plastic letter opener and a wine pouring spout.
I decided to use all three tiles, and here is how they turned out. No masterpieces, but fun to put your thinking cap on with the crazy placement. I must say, I really love the Star Map pattern in black and white below. I have never used it before, but with shading I think it is really cool! On the list for go-to drama!
This one was just plain fun. No rhyme or reason.
I tried Narwhal for the first time, and definitely need more work on it. It is a little tricky to draw because I think the first spacers need to be farther apart. I like how it looks on this tan tile.
BREAKING NEWS:
So...I haven't wanted to jinx myself by speaking too soon...but...I am off to PROVIDENCE, RI for CZT 19!!!!! Watch for posts - I will have my ipad so I will try to record some of the good stuff - assuming they don't make it top secret!
Signing out for now, but be back soon!

Love all three tiles! But I generally love all of your work. You are another tangle artist that I look up to...there are several in this group that I watch as much as possible. Congratulations on going to become a CZT. I hope to be able to do that at some time in the future. Great work!
ReplyDeleteThese tiles are beauties, Antonine! I love how your work just seems to flow...the color on the last one is wonderful. And you are in RI now...I will have to enjoy it vicariously, tell us all about it soon.
