This week The Diva's Challenge is of the "String Theory" kind. We are supposed to make a string using circles. For this I got out my compass and drew several non-concentric circles of different sizes. Then an idea struck me of something wriggling over and under the rings I saw. Ar first I considered using Fengle but I would have had to really squeeze it in there. I might try it at a later time, but for now I chose Squid.
All I can say is that this was very fun and very Zen :) I am tempted to sell this as my Journal 52 page for this week, which is supposed to be a mandala. But then I really feel like drawing a mandala with colours and everything, so I guess there will be another post tomorrow.
You can still submit your own tile. In any case, have a look at all the other artworks
here.
I love the tangles you used and I think they worked just right for you here. You could cut this one out and just add it to some wild background page for Journal 52 :)
AntwortenLöschenVery, very nice!
AntwortenLöschenI like your tile very much! Very festive... like a tiered cake!
AntwortenLöschenAbsolutely lovely - especially the ribbons weaving under and over.
AntwortenLöschenI think it came out great!
AntwortenLöschenVery pretty. The off-center circles, the "tentacles" and the tiny spots of Tipple make it eye-catching and fresh!
AntwortenLöschenNice way to address the challenge. I like the off-set concentric circles and the squid interweaving through out.
AntwortenLöschenThis is very beautiful, I like the ribbons going everywhere.
AntwortenLöschenThis is a very lovely, pretty and delicate image ... I love all the ribbons and the fact it is non-concentric!! Thank you for visiting me!!
