30 Paintings in 30 Days: Day 30: Zentangle Inspired Art Design


Yipee!  This is day 30 and I made it in spite of some pretty big hurdles like my dear husband being hospitalized 2 weeks ago.  He is doing fine, but it took some juggling to get everything done during the time he was in the hospital.

This design is drawn from the design on a gift bag received from a good friend, Rosie.    It is not exactly the type of design used in Zentangles - more of the type of designs found in tole painting in the 70's, but it did make a pretty design with the addition of tangles.

This Zentangle Inspired Art  is 6 inches x 6 inches and is done on good white drawing paper with Micron-Pigma pens and Prismacolor colored pencils.

I think this is my favorite, yet, Barb! I was reminded of some gorgeous brocaded fabric from back in the day too. Glad your husband is doing fine and so sorry to hear past couple of weeks have been tough on you both.

Congratulations, Barb!
You did it! And this in spite, as you said, major hurdles.

Sherry,
Thank you so much for your sweet comments on this tangle.
Also thank you for you kind concern about my husband and I - we are both doing much better - he with his 30 day monitor and me with my anxiety!
