This was a lot of fun this week! Who am I kidding? It is a LOT of fun every week! The moment I saw this template, I thought of guitar picks. However, I had no way to use that idea. But they still remind me of guitar picks.
For number one, I pulled out my colored pencils. I want to get better at using them, so I guess the only way is to practice. I really liked this one until I couldn't get rid of the yellow colored lines - why did I choose that color? Yuck. I also wish the pearl in the middle had been a lot different color. Something more vibrant. All that said, for numbers 2 and 3, I stuck with that gorgeous color - black. Simple. Elegant. And no chance to botch the mix!
I wanted to say thank you to LeeAnn for her wonderful tutorial on
using colored pencils. Her work is stunning and I would love for my colors to look half as awesome. But just as importantly as any knowledge I got about coloring, was what she said about using her cheaper set of RoseArt pencils. I too would love a set of Prismacolor, but just can't get them right now. My pencils are a roseart and crayola mix. I just didn't
want to work with those. However, she has inspired me to work with what I have and not give up. Thanks, LeeAnn. Your work is absolutely tops!
Have a great day and thanks for dropping by!
These are all lovely but my favourite is the coloured one. What a clever use of peanuckle in the third one. I would never have thought of that.
ReplyDeleteAll are lovely but really enjoy all the delicate lines in the last two
ReplyDeleteThese are all great but my favourite is the first one. It has a lovely organic feel about it .
ReplyDeleteThese are all really lovely. I'm trying to learn to work with colors also, but sometimes it's just hard to beat black and white!
ReplyDeleteVery lovely, all three! For me, I still prefer the original Zentangle way to work in black/white only. But ........ your colored one is great!

ReplyDeleteAll three of your Zendalas are excellent. Number 3 must have taken forever! It is so, so intricate with a lot of line work. Looks wonderful and well worth the effort - the complete Zen is just beautiful!
