That's New To Me #13

Week #13 challengs - letter L. I chose Luv-A, Lukiline and Lotadots.
Drawn on a new blackpaper sketchpad from Derwent. So nice paper, so velvety and smooth. And a new white gel pen from Sakura (JAP) GellyRoll 0.8. It's really white and has such a nice line. A bit colored with Koh-I-Noor colorpencils (yellow. green and orange).
I am so happy with my new toys)))

Diva's Weekly #202

Started it last weekend, but didn't like the result. Today rethought the design and did it well.

So, according to Diva's weekly #202 we should've created a Duotangle with only two patterns, Copada and Chebucto, both by Margaret Bremner.
Also, I used the TanglePatterns String #94, which, imho, was the best way to explore those patterns.

I colored them with my Koh-i-Noor Polycolor 24 colorpencils set and at last liked the result ;)

That's New To Mee Week 4

And here we go! ;)
Week 4 of That's New to Me challenge got us letter U. And I was late to participate in the last week challenge of It's a String Thing, but I so much liked the offered string #084, that I just needed to do it :)
So, Tangle Patterns String #084 and patterns Upwall, Up and Across, Undling and Zinger for organic contrast) ).
For me that string looks like some sky-scrappers, so two of the patterns are geometric and it seems like there are windows in the walls. Undling looks a bit like a roof-top garden )).

Liners - SakuraPigma Micron, colored with Koh-i-Noor Hardsmuth Polycolor 24 set.

Really loved to play with all thisese patterns, even if Upwall was a bit hard for me to do right.

Tackle it Tuesday #57

#57 of Tackle it Tuesday challenged us for the J-A-N abbreviation.
Jan for me is Janus - one of Roman gods:

In ancient Roman religion and mythology, Janus (Latin: Ianus) is the god of beginnings and transitions, thence also of gates, doors, doorways, endings and time. He is usually a two-faced god since he looks to the future and the past.

The Romans dedicated the month of January to Janus.

Source: Wikipedia.

So, Janus was my first choice, I just needed right tangles. Which are Jilli, Jitters, Allium, Nippa and Neuron. Hope I did well :)

Liners - Sakura Pigma Micron, color - Derwent Inktense pencils.

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.

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 ;)
