Mystical loveliness, Margaret!
ReplyDeleteThese are spectacular, Margaret! What a great idea to use aquafleur as part of a trumpet flower!!! I'm in love with the moon and with egg shapes in general too. I keep wanting to be in your head for a day... Thanks for all the inspiration you share so generously.
ReplyDeleteThanks Angela! I like egg shapes too, and every once in a while one shows up in my work.
DeleteOh my goodness!! These are beautiful. Is the egg a stone? Your style is graceful, balanced, nuanced and exquisitely rendered. Thank you for sharing them.
ReplyDeleteThanks Stephanie! I'm not quite sure what you mean about the egg being a stone.
DeleteTotal amazingness has happened to my eyes.
ReplyDeleteHaha! I love how you expressed that thought!
DeleteMargaret, I've been following you for a long time (several years) and am so impressed and delighted with your growth!! Your art is absolutely stunning. The colors, the layering, the line work, the tangles you choose ... what a feast for the eyes!!! Won't you PLEASE come to Tangle U one of these years and teach us (well, ME!) some of your secrets?! These 3 pieces are truly gorgeous. <3
ReplyDeleteThank you Jan! Curiously, I had the thought last night that it would be interesting to pull out some of my very first zentangle tiles/artwork and put them beside some of my most recent work. (Maybe that's a blog post?)
DeleteSince I had the huge problem travelling to TangleU a few years ago I've been very charry of travel to the US for anything art related, although - hallelujah - I did get to zenAgain. I intend to go to OgunquiTangle in November 2017, so fingers crossed. :)
All are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI can't stop looking.
These are eggstravagant! ;-) Awesome!
ReplyDeleteJust awesome. . . . i have been fooling around with feathers again lately. Must be in the air!
ReplyDeletethese are spectacular. Thank you for generously showing us all your stuff and how to do them.
