Adventures in Monotangle #8

This a variation or tanglelation of Phicops. It's one of my favorite tangles, but I wanted to try something different with it.

For my dodecahedron side, I borrowed Roy's idea of layered Phicops!

Adventures in Monotangle #7

I admit to being a week behind for the monotangle adventure! This is the week 7 tangle - Onamato.

--@@@@@--

I also wanted to post my 3D project. It will be a small dodecahedron - each surface being roughly 2 inches square (or, more accurately, 1.25 inch sides.)

Weekly Challenge #113

YAY - finished all my challenges this week! The Diva's challenge was to use box strings, one inside another. This left the choice of tangles a free-for-all LOL

Adventures in Monotangles #6

Another new to me tangle - Auraknot! Luckily there are no mistakes in Zentangling - so I just kept going....

I created this negative image and colorized it using PaintShop Pro.

Zendala Dare #52

For this dare, we had to overlay the template with a section of hollibaugh. This is my attempt!

Adventures in Monotangle #5

W2 is the tangle this week. A fun geometric shape, but how to do the transition from one area to another in a monotangle became my challenge. Should the "strips" end abruptly or should they dangle over - LOL
Here is my tile - decided to make a scalloped transition

While practising W2, I finished off a ZIA that I had half started.

Weekly Challenge #112

Tuxedo is the required tangle this week. At first it seemed like a mess of lines going every which way, but when I completed it step by step, it came out cute!

Adventures in Monotangles #4

For this monotangle we were to use Indy-Rella. I had not seen this tangle before, so I practiced all week on scratch paper. Below are a couple of my practice pieces. Being from Indy (Indianapolis) I feel like I should own this tangle and the more I drew it, the better I felt about it. It's easy to take on a flowing path.

Weekly Challenge #111

This is my take on "More-Mooka-Madness Monotangle-Mania" for the Diva's weekly challenge.

Again the pencil shading is darker IRL.

Zendala Dare #49

Another fun template this week from The Bright Owl. Just noticed I forgot to shade - I'll do that tomorrow :)

Here is the same Zendala with shading. I'm never able to get pencil shading to show very well in scans - there's more of an effect in person.

Adventures in Monotangles #3

I struggled with this adventure! Someone needs to invent more triangular tangles LOL

I drew two and a half zentangles and then decided my first one was the best. Here it is done with Insydout.

Decided to finish the "half" monotangle that I had started. I think this tangle is Feathers.

Week 110 Zentangle Challenge #2

I think I like this no box thing LOL. This is another larger piece about 6 x 5. I don't know why I thought I had to draw small Zentangles - unless it's the 5 or 6 years of doing ATCs and 4 x 4 chunkies. It's not like I don't have bigger paper :D

Week 110 Zentangle Challenge

This week we were to think outside the box. I drew a large tangle (5.5 x 6.5 inches) and used a large pen - .35 mm - LOL
I started my tangle in the center with no planned boundary. I just kept going until I felt like it had a finished balance.

Zendala Dare #49

Drawn for weekly Zendala Dare by The Bright Owl. The template is given and you get to fill it up as you please. I find them very relaxing because it's so repetitive. Tried some color on this one.
