I like them all! Congrats on your celebration, you make lovely art! I #3 #5 and #7 the most.
ReplyDeleteBesides the fact that they are all quite grand, it was difficult to choose. I find #3,'Piccadillie' stands out from the rest. Super,super, super.
ReplyDeleteOh my... they're all amazing! #2 (Announcing the Queen) is my fave. And #7 (Early Morning on Tangle Beach).

ReplyDeleteI love your work. They always provide me so much inspiration.
Wow, Shelly, these are all breath taking! You can definitely call this your Nautilus Series. If I had to pick just one, it would be #7. I would call it "Providence" to celebrate where we all met and became CZT7's!

ReplyDelete#6 - Sanibel
How Cool and thank you.
ReplyDeleteI would name #1 (my favorite), "by the sea"; it reminds me of a sea shell and since I just moved to the beach, I'm all about anything ocean/sea related at the moment, hahahaaa..

#3 Enchanted - Love it!!
ReplyDelete#7 'For the Love of a Star Fish' - they look like they are duelling head to head!
ReplyDelete#1 Summer by the Sea!
ReplyDelete#3 - Mooka in Love. I looked at all of them before I was influenced with the other comments. #3 just spoke to me of love. I'm happy for this milestone with your blog.

ReplyDeleteI love them all, but #7 is the one for me. " Just one little touch..."
ReplyDelete#7 'Low Tide Treasures'
ReplyDeleteThis piece makes me think of the shells, starfish & flecks of foam left on the beach at low tide.
All of your work is so lovely. Thanks for sharing.
LindyLu
Wow! They are all great! I like #3 -Pink is my favorite color, and the design
ReplyDeletealmost looks like an "S" - my initial - so my name would be Spring Swirls.
I am so glad I found your blog! I am becoming totally addicted to
Zentangles at age 92!
#3 - Tangle Garden
ReplyDelete#7 reminds me of a Tide Pool and all the wonders you find within so my name would be "Life in the Tide Pool". These are all stunning pieces. Thank you for sharing them and congratulations on your 200M hits! MaryAnn
ReplyDeleteNumber 7, Naughty Nautilus.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the mega number of views...and so deserved. Your work is stunning! You always manage to take my breath away when I open your latest creation. Keep up the great work!
Oh my Shelly, you have outdone yourself! These are all so fantastic! I am not surprised you have had so many people visiting your site, you and your work have always been an inspiration to me! I love all the ZIAs, the 2 that are speaking to me the most are #2 which I would name "Funky Horns of Fun" as I see several horns with all sorts of fun escaping! The other ZIA I just fell in love with is #5, I see it bursting with all sorts of summer fun items like a Funky Caterpillar, watermelon seeds being spit out, bouncing beach balls and fun beehives...so I would name it "Bursting Summer Bliss". Thank you so much for all you do for this wonderful artform!
ReplyDelete#3 Hawaiian Lei garland, cos it remind me of garland that Hawaii give to you on your arrival. I like all your works but #3 is best for me. Congs on 200,000 pageviews, yipee!!
ReplyDelete#1 Snail-a-vision
ReplyDelete#7 Snailestial Galaxy
I am inspired so much by your work..thank you.
ReplyDeleteI am drawn to number 5 which I name MIGRAINE..
I can even see a profile of the face and the actual pain pulsating on the side of the head.
I suffer from migraine and to me it is the first time a visual
ever described it so well.
but I truly loved the piece.
I adore #3. I would name it "Enchantment". Your work, as always, is so beautiful!!!
ReplyDelete#7 - Tin and Tang ...reminds me of Yin and Yang, and tang short for Tangles of course! :o)
ReplyDeleteI love #3-Seahorse because I see the shape of a seahorse inside. It is perfect for Father's Day. I do admire your work.
ReplyDeleteMichele, all of the pieces are absolutely beautiful but I think, (after long deliberation: ) that my favorite is #4. I would name it Fragile Blooms.
ReplyDeleteI think it describes, not only the intricate, delicate nature of the drawing, but could also represent the fragility of people.
Blessings as you continue to 'bloom' in your art work. cindy lee
Michele, I love your blog and visit often. If you ever come to SA and hold workshops I'll be there. I love all of these ZIAs but #3 is my favourite. It reminds me of 'My Grandmother's Garden'
ReplyDeleteMary
You mean I actually have to choose just ONE??? They are all so lovely…. sigh…..
ReplyDeleteBut I will go with #2 because I actually thought of a name: "Shout-out". It just seemed to be spilling forth goodness from the rope ends.
You are my most favorite Tangler of all. Wish I had been in Providence with you last year. My turn is this August. Thanks for your wonderful blog and all your gorgeous postings!

You are completely inspiring! It warms my heart to see your beautiful creations. I love all of these but as soon as I saw #3 "Blooming Gales" popped into mind.
ReplyDeleteMichele, I have been visiting your site for some time now. I am continually both blown away and inspired by your work. I saw this giveaway yesterday and #6 kept my eye the longest. Last night as I was drifting off to sleep I thought of a name that might fit so I would like to offer "Verdant" as a name for your piece and hopefully it could come and live at my home....I would be absolutely thrilled! Again #6 "Verdant"
ReplyDeleteThey are all amazing. I learn just from looking at them. I would choose #2 and name it Sousa. Like others, I see music there and I love music!

Asking me to pick a favorite is like asking me to pick a favorite child! I have to go with these two:
ReplyDelete#3--"So Softly They Swirl"
#4--"Rapun-shell" (just in case it's not obvious--because of the long braid and the shells!)
Shelly, you have been an inspiration to some many and so willing to share your talent and techniques with us, we should be giving YOU a prize!

I have been a frequent visitor here and an ardent fan of your artwork. Would be proud to take home #7 as an inspiration for my Zentangle journey.
