Pen on Paper – Page 3

Reborn

I love Zentangle! Simply because all I need to create a thing of beauty is a pen or two and the willingness to spend some time sitting in one place and focusing. I always feel calm and relaxed at the end of it. I can do it anywhere, anytime. I can start with a humbleContinueContinue reading “Reborn”

C-rendipity

Here’s introducing my new tangle : C-rendipity! It’s made up entirely of C-strokes and is quite fun to draw. I hope you’ll try it out and have fun with it… UPDATE: Here are some more ways to draw the tangle.

Cornered

I finally got around to finishing the tile for IAST#207. It was really a challenge, this one. I had never used this tangle before and with the suggested string, there was only one way I could think of composing this tile. The problem, you see, is that I was raised to be a follower ofContinueContinue reading “Cornered”

To Fit In or Not To Fit In

“Why fit in when you were born to stand out!” – Dr. Suess How I wish I had known this when I was growing up. This week’s diva challenge by guest blogger Elisa Murphy took me down memory lane and I must admit, it wasn’t all that pleasant. Growing up, I struggled plenty with notContinueContinue reading “To Fit In or Not To Fit In”

A Tangled Heart

The Diva’s weekly challenge#324 by guest blogger Jessica Davies came at the perfect time. I had just finished picking out a new name for my blog (and etsy shop, facebook page and, website) and was hard pressed to come up with a logo/icon. Much like Jessica, I don’t like heart shapes. They’re too clichéd and notContinueContinue reading “A Tangled Heart”

NUXY

This one is close to my heart and here’s why. My daughter, much like her dad, is a bookworm. She’s almost 12 and she is ridiculously logical, focused, and adamant about “not being into art”. She was about 5 years old when she announced that she wanted to become an astrophysicist. I don’t know whereContinueContinue reading “NUXY”

Round and Round and Round…

Here’s my tile for IAST#195. I did not finish it on time and so couldn’t send it in. But here it is nevertheless. On a different note, I finally took the plunge and registered for the CZT seminar. Needless to say, I am super excited and can’t wait. Come on Time, get moving!! I can’tContinueContinue reading “Round and Round and Round…”

I love Trella!! It is just so much fun. Here are my tiles for IAST#194 using Trella, Florz and N’Zeppel.

Mmmm… Molygon

About 14 years ago, my husband and I lived in Australia. I moved there after we got married (he’d already lived there for a couple of years before that). I loved it there. We didn’t have a lot of money but we did have a wonderful time. We were pennyless newly weds and I stillContinueContinue reading “Mmmm… Molygon “

Zari

I am so excited!!! A few weeks ago, I sent in one of my original tangles, Zari, to Linda and it made it’s way onto her website. Also, here are the step-outs along with two sample tiles including a monotangle. Step 4 and 5 are only suggested embellishments. However, the possibilities are many. I hopeContinueContinue reading “Zari”
