Weekly Challenge #228: GUEST BLOGGER Cari Sultanik, CZT


This week's I Am The Diva Challenge is to choose tangles that feel organic to me.  I love this challenge because I favor organic patterns that grow in all directions and morph into other things and provide a freedom that more structured patterns don't.


My first tangle is my first ever on a Zendala tile.  It features Flux (both Maria Thomas' and Rick Robert's versions).  Rick's version morphed into Show Girl while Bunzo anchored the whole thing and Zinger and Fescu provided a little whimZy.



My second tangle is one I created a couple weeks ago, so I didn't want to use it as my primary tile because it doesn't show what developed while thinking about this weeks challenge.  But, it definitely shows how much I like organic, freely developed patterns.  This one features both Maria's and Rick's versions of Flux, a really free floating Aquafleur and Showgirl.  I was experimenting with Sakura Pentouch pens in my quest to find a white pen I like.  The orange comes from a Sakura IDentipen.  The shading comes from a Zenstone.  The ZIA is on a 6x6 Strathmore Artist's Tile.

  1. Both are superb! the black and white looks like a curled up dragon hiding her head. At least to me! Love it

  2. Thanks Beth. Neat interpretation. I see more gooey, wormy things. Glad I don't see Gooey Ducks though.
