Well - I am totally, utterly and absolutely incapable of following instructions, especially when it comes to drawing grid based tangle patterns that require any sort of structured discipline. I only share this tile because I believe in the sharing and caring nature of the Zentangle community and we can each learn from other's challenges. I kept going, that's all I can say. When I realized I was about two million miles off pattern, I made the choice to keep going and see what would happen. I'm certainly not in love with this tile, but I did manage to give it some character and am happy with the fact that I remembered there are no mistakes and to keep going and leave the judgement at the door. Ultimately I enjoyed the experience, but it took some inner work to get there.
Oh how I agree about this one. I got confused. I got angry. I got through. Just. I think your version actually looks pretty good as it is, so you are right to accept that it works just like that.
ReplyDeleteOh my, it is beautiful! I Love Imperfections at grid based patterns and there is so much Motion in your tile. I know what you mean, I often feel the Same....
ReplyDeleteI really like how your version changed across the tile. It really gave such nice movement.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing. Nice energy!!
ReplyDeleteI love it!! It's all about the process anyway. ;-) I saw some things that were different in there, but if you hadn't said anything I wouldn't have known it was a "mistake". You did good on keeping on keeping on! :-D
ReplyDeleteThis turned out great! Kudos for sticking with it. It's delightfully out of the box:-) Grid patterns constantly vex me.
ReplyDeleteA great tile and no mistakes in it!!!!
ReplyDeleteA wibbly wobbly crux - I love it.
ReplyDeleteWonderful movement here! Very lovely tile!
ReplyDeleteIf you think you're 2 million miles "off pattern", then you've made a new pattern. Yours looks like smaller "petals" are sprouting up behind the longer ones. It's quite lovely.
