This challenge was using circle strings. I thought it would be fun to use circles within circles. I really like how this turned out. I have really been enjoying doing the Diva challenges. If you do Zentangle and you haven’t tried one of the challenges, I urge you to give it a shot. You can find them on her blog I am the diva.

Diva Challenge #168
I’m a little late to the party on this one. But I did have some fun with it.
I did this challenge on watercolor paper. I used my Tombow markers and water to create an ombre look. I thought it was fitting for a pattern called “Rain” and it was fun to do. My finished version has highlights with a soapstone pencil. I’ll have to take a picture of it (when I can get to it) and add it below this one.
Diva Challenge #167
This challenge was a DuoTangle using only Well and Punzel. I hadn’t ever tried either pattern and it took me a while to get them down. I think it turned out pretty nice overall.
Zentangle Pattern: Shuri
I had fun with this new pattern. It has so many possibilities for shading and drawing. I think the diagonal version would be really fun for fourth of July tangles.
The name came from my daughter who thought the centers looked like the Japanese throwing star Shuriken.

This is my first attempt at getting a Zentangle pattern accepted at the tanglepatterns.com website.
