Tangles used: Socc, Flux, & Tipple. Not sure if the woven string is an official tangle or what its name is. If anyone knows please let me know.
I mentioned that I could was able to combine doing something for the challenge and also something for the gift shop. This is actually a combination of last week's and this week's challenge.
Use Bunzo and Socc to complete this snowflake. Socc was a little difficult because it is in a smaller space but it is there.

Thanks for visiting and hope you enjoyed it. As always, comments are always welcomed and appreciated.
Your tile with Socc is a beauty! I also like the snowflake very much!
ReplyDeleteSucces with all your work!
Thanks. I did Socc first and was a little undecided about what to do with it. The woven border was really to separate the tangles and went with a more organic tangle as Demi,Dex, or Cubine, all of which I thought about seemed too much grid.
Deletelove your socc tile, Donald! You did a wonderful job with it! The snowflake looks terrific, too - good use of both these patterns :)
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the craft show!
Thanks. More experience with doing tiles and the positive comments from fellow tanglers/artists has made me more comfortable with the end results. I am not sure I will ever stop being my own worst critic. I was really surprised how the two tangles on the snowflake did work together.
DeleteWe're always our own worst critic. I try to take everything that I draw, good and bad, as a learning experience and move on - but sometimes it's so hard to do!
DeleteA wonderful tile Donald! so neat and your Christmas snowflake is a beauty too!
ReplyDeleteThank you. I was surprised by how the snowflake turned out. Really started to look different when I began adding the fill and highlights.
DeleteThe Socc tile is great! Somehow very different from what I've seen up to now.
ReplyDeleteThe snowflake would fit beautifully in my tree, it has the right color :)
Pity this art show is so very far from Belgium! Good luck with it.
Thank you for your compliments on the tile and the snowflake. I am hoping that people here will also like it enough to purchase it. This was about the 4th snowflake I did and not really sure why the orange and these tangles stood out so much. Was a pleasant surprise when I finished.
DeleteBeautiful tile and snowflake. I really like the tangles you have used in your tile.
ReplyDeleteThank you. I am glad that you enjoyed them.
DeleteYour soccs rock Donald!! The woven tangle looks alot like the official tangle chainging.
ReplyDeleteThanks for both the comment and the naming of the tangle. Will have to pull out my "official" step outs and review them. Thanks again.
DeleteAmazing use of Socc! I love it!
ReplyDeleteLove how you shaded Socc, and added dark areas that make it so bold and graphic!
ReplyDeleteLove your tiles. Post some photo's of your craft show.
ReplyDeleteLovely! I particularly like how your Socc has turned out. It's very different to mine, but that's what I love about Zentangle.
