I Am the Diva Weekly Challenge #250

I Am the Diva Weekly challenge #250 "Bring it Back To the Old School".

Did I ever enjoy this challenge.  I've been feeling a bit blue lately and have deliberately been returning to Zentangle basics and making myself Tangle almost every morning.  I've sensed my mood in the stilted unimaginative tangles during that time.  This week I've started loosening up and have been happy to Tangle and pleased with my "basic" tangles (although Sakura Micron Brown does slip in there a lot).

Today, I'm blown away.  This was fun, fairly fast, inspired, flowing, easy peasy and neato bazito.  Hope it was the same for you.

Standard Zentangle, a string, black ink, patterns, shade with pencil, initial, sign the back, admire.  I used Fescu, Zinger, some dots, Mooka Fengle Tanglation, Weird Umble, Oddball Cirquital, Cubine and A Real Rixty - and maybe a couple other filler like thingies.

  5. "Neato Bazito" is a new one for me although I suspect that "neato" would instantly clue one into my demographic. You certainly managed to use a wealth of tangles, but the result is very satisfying for the viewer and does not look cluttered. If I venture beyond 3 tangles in a real Zentangle tile, I think my results are at best "confusing" and at worst, confusing AND ugly. Nice one.

  7. Great tile, but the thing that really made me smile was the descriptive additions to the tangle names :-)
