Laura's Challenge #87 is celebrating Pinwheels for Peace for September 21 the International
Day of Peace .
I chose to make a Pinwheel with just 2 tangles...marasu and yincut with a touch of peaceful calm blue.
This is REALLY thrree-dimensional. Love the blues... so calming and 'peaceful'. Clever response to this challenge. Is it springtime down under? Delicate little purple/blue flowers. Lovely.
This IS so peaceful. I love your choice of these tangles, and how light and airy it feels. Shelly - I am co-hosting a challenge at Artists in Blogland starting October 1. You can read about it here: http://artistsinblogland.blogspot.com/2012/09/announcing-autumn-challenge-fall.html I'm hoping some of the amazing artists from the zentangle world will participate. If you're so inclined, it would be an honor to see you there...
Just come in from doing some gardening and repotting plants into bigger pots. Saw you pinwheel and it's just so lovely Michele!!!!!julie714@adam.com.au

ReplyDeletevery very pretty indeed - such a gorgeous blue and perfect tangle work.
ReplyDeleteThis is really very peaceful. Like the tangles you used, and the touch of blue makes it heavenly peaceful. Great looking! :)
ReplyDeleteLike the contrast of the two. Maybe if I keep trying will get the consistency of the tangles. Understand why my sister is a fan of your work.
ReplyDeleteLovely pinwheel and photo!
ReplyDeleteSo beautifully staged. Your pinwheel is just gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful.
ReplyDeleteLovely! Did you tangle both sides of the paper and then form the pinwheel? It's perfect with just the two tangle patterns. Great job.
ReplyDeleteYes Emily, I tangled both sides first.
