The Diva's Weekly Challenge #201

This week's challenge of the Diva is dedicated to Moebius Syndrome Awareness Day, which is on the 24th of January.
I tried to fill in the offered logo and combine Onamato tangle with something that will complete it. The tangles are Msst, BB, Teardrops Tops and some others as well as my own improvisation.
The purple color is the color of the Moebius Syndrome Foundation (which logo is the main concept of the challenge). Also it is the color of faith and belief. The orange and yellow is my own colors for hope and optimism.

Tangle patterns string #138

Tried myself at the string thingy offered by Tanglepatterns. The string is provided by CZT Lianne Woods. It is so simple that you just want to complicate it a bit ;)
And I made this tile


My mistake, I didn't write down which patterns I choose and I'm sure that some of it was my own improvisation)).  Well, I'll try to not make that mistake again.
Liners - Sacura Pigma Micron, even colored ones).

Muster Mixed Challenge #2: Mix Arucas and Balloya

I found about this challenge thru one of the blogs I'm reading. And decided to challenge myself.
So, I tried to mix those two tangles - Arucas by Molly Hollibaugh and Balloya by Anya Lothrop. They are both so beautiful geometric tangles, and I later used them in one of my artworks.
But, here we go with MusterMixed challenge!
First - only liners


And then I wanted to color them with my colorpencils. And here what I've got


I've made a bit of mistakes with orange and yellow color, but you'll notice it if you're are really looking, I think ;)

Those blog also has a german language only alternative - freudemitzentangle.de

That's New To Me week 3

Another week of the challenge got us letter V which I combined with string #140 at tanglepatterns.com


Patterns are Verve by JJLaBarbera, Veezley by Sandy Hunter and Vache 1&2 by Genevieve Crabe.




I've decided to combine them with my new watercolor set Simply (Dailer Rowney). I've just bought it and those watercolors are truly awesome. Tried myself at mixing new colors from just the half of the set and I was in ablolute love with them instantly! Beautiful, really, and bright and very saturated.




Here, if you want to look at them closely: White, Coerulean, Ultramarine, Yellow Ochre, Burnt Sienna and Burnt Umber.




And the mixed ones, I really don't know which names they have, but I know that you can make Teal if you mix Coerulean and Burnt Sienna, and very deep Grey Brown, if you do it the other way ;).




Really, I never even knew before that some colors that I truly love, could be made just by mixing some of those six.
