I am looking forward to viewing everyone's aquarfleurs this week. This is a really gorgeous tangle created by Maria.
After our Australia Day celebrations Heidi was inspired to create this super tangle which she has called fire works.

Shelly, your Aquafleurs are beautiful. Lovely, gentle composition, #1 tile. Lovely.
ReplyDeleteI love all three tiles. Your work always inspires me! Heidi seems to be following in your footsteps!
ReplyDeleteHow can you come up with the patterns and drawings you would do? I find coming up with the designs is so far the hardest thing ... Any suggestions??? :) Thanks
ReplyDeleteMorgana, I have heaps of favourites that I tend to use a lot and I often concentrate on one tangle for a couple of weeks and incorporate that as much as I can until I get really familiar with it. At the moment I am loving squill that's the tangle with the green in the 2nd tile. I usually just use the 1st one that pops into my head. Thanks for asking.
DeleteBeautiful, Shelly. Love them all, especially the elegant lines in the top one :)
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful examples of Aquafleur you've given us. I love them all. And Heidi is showing great promise!
ReplyDeleteAxxx
Shelly, I just love the variations and they all fit perfectly together - love how in the first one, Aquafleur seems to be drifting in the air; the crispness of the 2nd and the gorgeous colours of the 3rd - tfs :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Shelly, I am always inspired by your work, the subtle border you made in the first one, oh I love that. Great work! After visiting your blog I always want to take my pen and start trying to do myself. I love your compositions.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Aquafleurs !
ReplyDeleteHeidi's tiles are Lovely :)
Very lovely! I can't wait to try this tangle.
ReplyDeleteAquafleurs are beautiful and I love your first tile. I am fairly new to tangles but am so inspired with them. Maybe one day I'll join in this party.. Have a wonderful week!
ReplyDeleteReally nice Aquafleur tiles. The top one is my favorite because the wide black is such a dramatic contrast to the white. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI love all the white space in your first tile!
ReplyDeleteI could look at your art all day long! You are so creative and inspirational to me.
ReplyDeleteLove the aquafleur, particularly the tile with the green! It makes the tangle look like a seastar and I love how dynamic you make your tiles :) I also like fire works! I'll have to work that in some time...
ReplyDeleteLove the first tile, it reminds me of something underwater which seems wholly appropriate for an Aquafleur. As someone relatively new to this artform I take great inspiration from your work Linda x
ReplyDeleteYou have such a lovely line quality in your tiles. It is so fun to see them!
ReplyDeleteWhat an inspiration you are! each line shows the eye a new treat!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, elegant and organic. Lovely!
ReplyDeleteAll three tile are beautiful and very elegant! Heidi´s tiles are very lovely, too! She is very talented!
ReplyDeleteBoth look great. I like how the simple addition of the border in the first one adds so much to the tile. Like the color in the second. I do not use it a lot but yours just makes the whole tile stand out.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous!!!!
ReplyDeleteYour work is so beautiful! I like the added splash of green but the top aquafleur is my favorite -- it appears that is opening up, continuous. Breathtaking tile.
ReplyDeleteShelly, I just discovered your blog through Pinterest. What a delight! I look forward to looking back through time at your previous posts, then will follow you into a very artful future! Your pieces are compelling and lovely.

I love the delicate lines you used in the first one! Great work!
ReplyDeleteYour Aquafleur pieces are so beautiful! I especially love the scroll work in the first one. So pretty.
ReplyDeleteThese are yet again so beautiful. I do admire your work.
ReplyDeleteLove fireworks.
ReplyDeleteREminds me a little of "Birdie Feet" which I also love.
Thank you, Michele, for again sharing your your spirit-filled talent with us and sharing your family as well as their creative works with us!!
