Two Pencil String


Laura Harms aka I am the Diva's second weekly challenge is to tangle with a 2-pencil string.  This is my tentative entry...I kept it simple, still have trouble with Betweed, practiced a few times on Paradox (top left) and I'm happy with how it turned out. I'm not so sure I like the string, I flubbed it a little at the bottom. Might just try another tangle for this challenge...mixed feelings about this one.

No, I am not going to change it...I did some thinking and that is not the attitude Zentangle promotes.  There are no mistakes (having a little trouble with that part) and tangling is supposed to be relaxing not ending in self criticism.  I have decided to be happy with it because I was happy doing it!  Lesson learned! 8-)

  1. Agree it's a very lovely tangle. Like the twisted look in the ribbon.

  3. It's beautiful!... and for sure, we can't see your "flub" as there is no such thing in Zentangle! Looking forward to next week!

  4. Wow, Heather! This one is very expressive and you can see the movement in it, too. Gorgeous! (And it looks like you've got Betweed happening beautifully to me!) ♥ the whole package!

  8. It is gorgeous! I have to agree with everything that everyone has said here. It's funny how each of us has trouble with certain tangles. I think when the brain learns to let go, the hand can learn the motions. That frees the brain to deal with more lofty concerns. (It sounds good, so that's the story I'm staying with, lol!)

  10. I love it the way it is!
    The contrast of the moving ribbon and the static square is thrilling.

  12. How funny that we both chose a squarish background! I had not even seen your work before attempting mine! Beautiful!
