Softly does it backgrounds!

Amazingly there is always something new to learn about Zentangle techniques. If you have the Zentangle Mosaic app you have probably seen Maria Thomas's latest wonderful tiles. This week I have been inspired by her tangling to play with the white pen creating soft backgrounds.

    Beautiful tiles. I like the gems. Do you use water color pencils or something else? I have the information for the shades of gray background bur have not had time to do anything with it.

    Thanks Donald, I use the Prismacolor pencils, they are beautifully soft and blend really well.

    The second tile is my favorite. Using the white pen for a background is so effective! Beautiful!!!

    Your gems look liquid. Have to remember that they are 2D and made from ink and pencil. And I'll have to look up the soft background tangles then have a try myself.
