Many tangles have a stripe of some sort running through them. I did a tile using five of those tangles, and ran the stripes through the whole tile.

In one of my classes (small mandalas) we use the tangle Tortuca as a ring around another tangle. I tell the students that Tortuca is usually done in a square grid, but that any tangle based on a square grid can be used in a single row, straight or curved. So I did that in the next tile, using several square grid tangles. You can see where I got into a zen flow of filling Cubine's little squares and filled one in Screen too!

Your pen is given wings by your creative structured tiles! I love how you give each individual tile a mood and style of its own!
ReplyDeleteSo very elegant stripes!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful line work and shading! Love the gentle curves in each of the tiles!
ReplyDeleteThey are so different and still both so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteComing to your blog is like coming to be fed - there are little snippets of information that you share which just really feed the hunger to learn more. The square grids bordering has me so excited........ husband's decided he's sending me to be CZT trained next year - beyond my wildest dreams all the way from UK.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful stripes with great shadings.
ReplyDeleteLove what you did in both tiles! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI really like both of these = love how you transitioned from one tangle into another in the first, and in the second, my fav part is the 'combination' of cubine and bateek. Very inspirational and I learn a lot looking at your work.
ReplyDeleteLove these both and how the tangles morph into one another...so brilliant and smooth!!
ReplyDeleteLove them both! I'm really drawn to the Combs and Bateek they are so striking. Must try them out...
ReplyDeleteYou do very nice work, and I get inspired by looking at it.
