This week's Diva Challenge was issued by a guest challenger, Rho Densmore. Inspired by the Olympics, the challenge was to use the Olympic Rings to create a tangle. I feel like I kind of cheated with this one - I used a toonie to draw the circles (cheat #1) and I used an idea that I incorporated into the Moebius challenge from a few months ago by putting Gneiss into the background (cheat #2). I used Staedtler Ergo Soft pencil crayons to colour.
Here it is - I may add another one throughout the week...
Beautifully done!
ReplyDeleteit's very nice! i love the shading - excellent job!
ReplyDeleteVery cool, I like that you turned your tile :D
ReplyDeleteVery graphic. I like it a lot.
ReplyDeleteThere's no cheating in Zentangle... just creating! Nice job, Gneiss sets off the rings beautifully!
ReplyDeleteI really like your shading and the Gneiss in the background.
ReplyDeleteVery bold and beautiful!
ReplyDeleteVery dramatic, Great tile!
ReplyDeleteIt is a very strong tile!
ReplyDeleteYour shading is wonderful, something I have yet to try. It makes your tile come alive, lovely.
ReplyDeleteSimply beautiful and it fits the blog background too ;-)
ReplyDeleteI don't think you cheated! You might ordinarily use the same tangle patterns over and over. I really like the Gneiss in back.
ReplyDeleteThis is amazing. I've never heard of Gneiss, but it sure looks good here as background for the rings. The shading is wonderful.
ReplyDeleteI love the elegant simplicity of your tile....I too used a template to get my rings just the way I wanted them...I don't think it as cheating...just enhancing!!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat design to meet the challenge.
ReplyDeleteNice design and the shading is great!
