This week, we're celebrating my dad's birthday... and in honour of his love for barbecuing (and his epic love of hamburgers), my sister commissioned a special "Dad's birthday" cake - it was a (gluten-free) chocolate cake with a brownie center for the meat, and fondant for the fixin's. It was deeeeelish!!

This week's
mandala took me a while longer to do than I'd expected. I kept seeing Paradox in everything - and I mean everything - and was doing my best to NOT use it (I rely on it quite a bit, and I needed to branch out a little!). I may do another one with nothing but Paradox... just for fun!

Additional Zendala! I completed one with JUST Paradox... much much busier than the first version, but still very cool to see what can happen with the same template! I love that tangle more than any of them!!

This is a gorgeous zendala. Your choice of tangles works so well; it's filled out; but lovely and peaceful looking.
ReplyDeleteAnd I tried to do different than all the others and I see this ... LOL
ReplyDeleteFunny to see the same pattern arise :)
I noticed it on yours, too! I hadn't looked at any of them before I did mine, so it was funny that they had similar centers - as soon as I saw the way the pattern was laid out, I knew that was how I wanted to do it (after I convinced myself that I wasn't going to use paradox!).
DeleteVery nice!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it funny how some tangles are just so comfortable and relaxing they get used all the time? I do that with several - paradox is one of my go-tos. Your zendala is very beautiful. Love your cake too!
ReplyDeleteI love both your zendalas! Like you, I held myself back from using paradox, and also ended up with a similar center!
ReplyDeleteWould love to have a piece of that cake right now! Looks great.
I was searching for your zendala's, yesterday i did see it but no time for a comment. I am realy impressed bij your paradox zendala for me i have always some problems whit it. The first one is also pfffff.
ReplyDeleteBeautifully done and the cake looks great too!
