Tangles used: Printemps, Shattuck, Heartvine, Noom
Highlighting and color were done with Prismacolor pencils
I still need to work on using the colored pencils, The shading gradation did not turn out like I would have wished. I did use a layering effect to help with the smoothing and blending. Overall I am pleased with the outcome.
I have not looked at any of the other submissions on I am the Diva. I hope to have some time to do so and would encourage any of you that have not all ready done so, to go and look at what is there. I would also encourage you to take the time to comment on the different art. It is greatly appreciated. You can click on the above link to go there directly.
Thanks for visiting. As always, comments are welcomed, encouraged, and appreciated.

I like your tile. Shading with color pencils is so very different and also depending on what pencils you use. I prefer pastel ones.
ReplyDeleteThanks. I have never used pastels.
DeleteI am impressed that you took on doing the Moebius on your own, Donald! I have always printed it out. Maybe next year, LOL! Nice tangling and the coloring looks very nice!
ReplyDeleteThanks. Only took me about 4 years to get the logo and for some reason the light bulb went off this year.
DeleteBeautiful piece Donald! The color is quite elegant and I especially love how you shaded "Noom". Well done! I use Prismacolor pencils too and I find using the clear marker blender works well on the pencil to blend and layer.
ReplyDeleteThanks. I use the blender also. I think some of it is that I am not sure that the Zentangle® tiles take the color pencils quite as well as some other papers.
DeleteNicely done, your colors are so subtle, beautifully done. I think your colored pencil work is perfect!
ReplyDeleteThanks. It is that old bug-a-boo of expectations matching with reality.
DeleteLovely colored pencil work! Your tile turned out wonderfully... a very nice mix of tangles.
ReplyDeleteTnanks.
DeleteBeautiful zendala! I too have trouble getting the shading right when using pencil crayons. I haven't figured it out yet!
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteBeautiful zendala with the Moebius logo! I like your soft colouring with the Prismacolors!
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteI like it! I have not yet attempted using color. Good job!
ReplyDeleteThanks
