Howdy Folks!

Once again its time for the Weekly Challenge from our Diva!...And this week its the Mighty Mooka! Yup! This is one pattern which took me ages to perfect....and I'm far from it yet...

There are many patterns which make me break out in goose bumps just trying 'em out....and Mooka is one of them....

Maria makes it look sooooo easy...and wow her patterns are just that - WOW! I wonder if I will ever be as perfect or even near perfect as her ....

Well, I plan on getting there!....:)

Adventures in Monotangles # 03

Ok I had a tough time with this one! Not cuz of the template but in trying to find a tangle that would suit the template...Since it IS a monotangle!

Had I the option of using more tangles then I wouldn't have found it tough. But I made it through..:)

And I enjoyed every minute of it...:) I have to apologize though, I couldn't resist doing the Paradox in the center, seeing the BOX! Its like someone playing Gangnam Style and NOT dancing! Sorry Roy.... ;-P 


Cheers

Diva's Challenge # 110 - No Box??

Hello Everyone...:)

Ok this is going to be a lil long winded....:) First off, Laura, you look gorgeous!!! Your makeover is just FAB!! Im in LOVE with your hair!!! Wowieeeeeeee....Now you got the DIVA LOOK...:)))

This weeks Challenge calls for getting rid of the BOX. Now Ive always been a person who rarely uses strings, unless called for, and Ive also used Colors, Ive tangled Pots too!!....So for me this was one TRUE Challenge. To find something Ive never done before!!

I would like to show you some of my work...I dont know how many of you go through my blog but for thos of you who havent yet seen it, I am posting a pic of a POT I recently Tangled.....


So when the Diva called for this Challenge, I really didnt know what to do!....And then it struck me! Ive always wanted to do tangles on a canvas so I decided to go ahead and do a canvas!! I painted the background with Acrylics and tangled on top of it.....

I do hope it is worth an entry....:)


I used my phone to click this picture so pardon the 'glare'..:( 


Cheers...:)

Diva's Challenge # 109

Heya Everyone!!!!

Once again we are back with the Challenge for the week....!! Its lovely to see you back in form Laura...:) We all have our 'moments' when we feel inadequate or question ourselves. But am sure by now you know how much we ALL LOVE YOU....:)))

I dabble in a bit of everything - acrylics / watercolors / pencil sketching......and off late I haven't been able to do much in acrylics...I end up trashing my work.....and each time I feel inadequate as an artist I tangle...and am back in form...:)

When I first saw this week's challenge my reaction was - "No way in hell am I gonna be able to do that..:((( "......

And then as they say in Zentangle land - forget the result....go with the flow..its the PROCESS that counts.....and well here it is.....:)...... A Zentangle Carpet...:)


Cheers....

Diva's Challenge # 108

And its time for the Diva's Challenge

And before I begin I would once again like to extend my deepest sympathies on the loss of your Grandma. I was very very close to mine and she was my pillar of strength. I was all but 12 when she passed away and that's one incident in my life which will stay with me as long as Im alive. 

I still miss her after so many years. She was one gutsy lady for her time! And she has in many ways inspired me. 

Here is my entry for this week's Challenge. 





Cheers...:)

Sufi Saint - in Abstract.....



I am not very happy with the result as I had envisioned something else altogether but will keep it to remind me what a novice I was!....I mean I'm 'hoping' that in a few years I will be better at this...:)
