Challenge 173

The Diva's 
Weekly Challenge #173: Redux, Remix, Revisit Your Comfort Tangle

We have a guest Sharla Hicks CZT post our challenge this week.

See her beautiful informative blog here

We are to Redux, Remix, Revisit a familiar favorite tangle, one we may call a comfort or go-to tangle with a different look. I selected Tripoli but I stretched it out on a black zendala tile. I usually overdo the black tiles but I enjoyed the simplicity of one tangle and decided it was finished so revisited brayd on another black zendala tile.

 

Thanks Sharla for encouraging me to revisit the black tiles.

A Special Zentangle Class

A couple of weeks ago I received an email from Rhonda inquiring about a Zentangle class. I could feel her excitement as we exchanged emails and within a couple days her flights to Tasmania were booked....now that is exciting especially as she lives in Queensland.

To make it a special weekend Rhonda also brought along her 9 year old grandson Shelby. Our time together went so fast, we had heaps to talk about, as we chatted and tangled Shelby created some wonderful art and Rhonda shared her beautiful delicate style with that fun Zentangle passion that we all understand.

Thank you Rhonda and Shelby for coming to visit, in winter too!!

That's Rhonda on the right.
 
Our renaissance tiles. Shelby's is on the bottom isn't it great.

Here we are with Shelby
