Paradoxical

I really like the tangle Rick's Paradox. I had the idea to use it as the string, sort of, and fill the sections with other tangles.

I did one on a zentangle tile (9 cm. square) and it turned out rather well. I decided to try it in a larger format.



I used Paradox in it's 'traditional' form around the edges. What interests me is that the lovely spiral effect of this tangle is quite lost. It's not what I expected, which is disappointing and thrilling at the same time! Another paradox. I like it anyway.

PARADOXICAL, zentangle-inspired drawing. 20.5 cm.(8") square.

P.S. - There is an "error" in this one. Can you see it? (No, it's not teeny tiny; no need to zoom in.)
