I love playing around with tangles and experimenting with tangleations. Presenting Mooka. This Zendala is a tile I worked on a while ago with each instance of Mooka ending up like half a pokeleaf. This is a traditional Mooka in combination with Shattuck. I was mainly trying to work on my shading skills here andContinueContinue reading “Mooka Mania”

More Waybop from Way Back
I just realized that I never followed up on my waybop journey. I did work on a few more tiles but somehow neglected to post the pics here. Life’s been a bit of a roller coaster for a while now and I am just in the process of getting it together and learning to takeContinueContinue reading “More Waybop from Way Back”
Back again…
… And hopefully here to stay. The last couple of months have been really hard for me and I haven’t been really tangling much. Then it happened. Suddenly I got an unquenchable urge to pick up my pen and draw. So I checked out the latest diva challenges and decided to start with the oneContinueContinue reading “Back again…”
My ‘ZEN’ Is Back…
At last!! I’ve waited in quiet desperation, with wringing hands and bated breath, wondering if it was like one of the thousand other things that I got all excited about and drowned myself in for a short while but didn’t follow through to the end. I wondered if the ‘zen’ had abandoned me forever. I haven’tContinueContinue reading “My ‘ZEN’ Is Back…”
Presenting Momo…
…not the dumpling but a new tangle inspired by the dumpling. Deconstructing this tangle has been on each one of my to-do lists seemingly forever. Now that I’m finally caught up on the Inktober tangles and the swaps, I was able to get this done today. Actually now that I think about it, maybe theContinueContinue reading “Presenting Momo…”
A Tile a Day Keeps Insanity Away
There are good days and then there are days I’m not so thrilled about. On my good days, everything is great. I have slept through the night and I am full of energy. I get things done like a pro. But on those other days…the ones I’m not super thrilled about, I just want toContinueContinue reading “A Tile a Day Keeps Insanity Away”
पंखा (Pankha)…
Here’s another one of my tangles, Pankha, which translates to fan in Hindi. It reminds me of one of those ancient ceiling fans with the palm leaf blades. I haven’t yet put the step outs into my template and I’m still working on the sample tiles. I finished one but ruined it because I triedContinueContinue reading “पंखा (Pankha)…”
Reminiscence
It’s strange how memory works. Sometimes the most unlikely things take you back in time. A smell or a texture. Sometimes its just a tangle. I don’t remember how I came up with this tangle but as soon as I finished drawing it, I thought of our time in Shanghai. I found that strange forContinueContinue reading “Reminiscence”
Striped
I’ve been playing around with the elemental strokes a little bit. It’s always exciting to see what these simple strokes can create. So, I’ve been journaling the step-outs for what I think are my original tangles. However, I feel it is impossible to know. Just because there are way too many tangles out there. ForContinueContinue reading “Striped”
More C-rendipity
I’ve been playing with my new tangle a bit and here are the tangleations I came up with. I didn’t think this tangle had so many possibilities but the longer I play with it, the more I’m loving this tangle…
