Adele Bruno's "It's a String Thing" Challenge #159
Adele's "Weighted Printemps" String
Printemps, Palrevo and Partay
on a watercolor tile
Can't say I'm all too crazy about this one. I wish I'd thought out the "Partay" part more...but it is what it is.
Travelling Tangles completed this week:
My finish to Irene Robinson's start
This is the tile that arrived from Irene in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina
Irene's prompt of the blue Printemps got me in a blue shading mode
I do enjoy the pleasure of drawing on the official Zentangle tiles. Sometimes I can't stop;-)
My finish to Barb Mavraganis's start
This cute little gift of a tile arrived from Barb in Pennsylvania
Here are the finished to tiles/ATC's I sent out:
I sent these to Paula Beverly in Toronto, Ontario
This is Paula's lovely finish
I sent this "Singapore Sling" to Sabrina Kirjavainen in Finland
here's her fun finish
I sent this to Sabrina a while back
She finished it with a lot of sparkle
Thanks so much for visiting my blog. Your thoughtful and generous comments delight and inspire me.
You may think your IAST tile is what it is, but I like it! I don't really like "random" patterns like Partay. All the other tiles finished by you or started by you, is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThanks Susan! I've long since realized that I'm not going to love everything, but it's important to honor the process:-)
DeleteOh Michele, your IAST tile for Adele is gorgeous!I LOVE the little coloured partay in the background (I had a little bit "stress" with that tangle...)
ReplyDeleteAnd all the travelling tiles are so elegant! Thank you for sharing!
OK, I LOVE your first tile. Really. I know it feels strange when someone else really likes a tile that you don't just love yourself. Sometimes it takes seeing it through someone else's eyes, or just takes time to see how beautiful it really is. Or maybe, you just never see it. I know cuz it's happened to me. But here's what I like best: That Partay looks like little bits of metallic with a patina all their own, that accentuates the patina look of the background. I also love the contrast of the Palrevo and how the Printemps winds its way through it like a weed searching for light, and how the shape of the individual printemps is mirrored in the string it sits on. Cheers!
ReplyDeleteLove what you did with that quib centered travelling tile! wow! I want to get out my sketchbook and play with quib and tipple. Excellent pieces, all of them.
