Diva Challenge #92 Second Submission: String Theory v. XIV Stripes

In my earlier post I indicated that I thought I would do another one. Some of this was motivated by my mixed feelings about the first one. This was not the only reason and I must admit I was taken a little by surprise by the very positive comments of people. Not that I expected people to criticize it or be negative, I just did not expect the extent of positive comments. I guess I should not have been surprised as the people I have met involved with zentangle tend to be very positive. The comments were very much appreciated and it did give me a different perspective on what I had done. That one being said while this one is a little more traditional, it is not completely so. It is however more pleasurable to my eyes. I'm not exactly sure why. I do not think it is possible or necessary to totally compare the two because they are quite different, and unique and pleasing in their own way.


Tangles used: Flux, Arckles, Fearcles, Scrawlz, Pearlz, Tipple

  3. This one is also very nice. You are right, we must not compare it with the first one because they are totally different. Maybe we should never compare ..........
