Zendala dare #6

Erin, the Bright Owl, has another dare this week. You can see the dare, templates, and her tangled offering here. I agree with her that a five-pointed thing on a square just doesn't seem to fit properly, so I used a blank Zendala tile. While I was tracing the template I suddenly wanted to add another star at the back, making it even more circular.

Tangles: Black Pearlz, Bilt, Jonqal, Lotus Pods, Parabola

First, I put down an orange wash with water-soluable pencils. This Tiepolo paper is wonderful to use with water! It's a printmaking paper so it expects to get wet and dry at least once and it dries beautifully flat. I think I'll be doing this again. I used mainly an orange pen, but also red, brown and yellow. I'll admit, that's my least favorite combination of colors. Shading was done with two orange pencils.

Thanks Erin!
