New Tangle, Embellishment, or Tangleation: Whee

When I was first introduced to Zentangle® I was playing around one day just seeing what I could come up with. I came up with something that my sister has used since a couple of times and I did submit it to Tangle Patterns, but it was never posted there. I have used it a few times on things and decided to pull it out to use on this week's Diva Challenge. I do not get a lot of comments on my blog, but there was some consistency in people commenting that they liked this tangle. I figured that since there was some interest and I had never put in a post I would put it out there because others might be interested also. I have started a page of My Tangles so it will always be available there also.

After posting this, and after receiving a comment, I did find out that Melissa Hoppes had created a tangle Frippery, that is very similar to this. The step outs are different, but they end in a similar fashion. The only place I know it is available is in Kass Hall's Zentangle Untangled.

It has a number of  possibilities but may tax your need for symmetry depending on how you approach it. The name was picked because as I was drawing it, I thought of going down a curling slide and the glee that might be expressed, thus Whee.

Hope you enjoy it and would be open to seeing things that you tried with it. Here is the step out.

Here is a tile where I used it.

This is a tile that I used it in recently.  As you can see, you  can get quite a different look depending on how you fill,shade, or embellish it.

Thanks for visiting. As always, comments are welcomed, encouraged, and appreciated.

Go Tangle !!
