As our balmy breezes blow and we prepare for a bit of rain on this Monday morning, we are surrounded by the color gray. The Diva's Challenge theme also calls for a color variance within our tangles. Very nice change of direction. No stress. Just use the traditional black ink - and add sepia ink at any point in your ZIA or Zentangle design. Little changes can sometimes make a bold statement. See Laura's expanded comments and instructions here.
My contribution to this challenge is part of a ZIA that I started a few days ago. It's a collage-type design, somewhat similar to Zentangle's 'Ensembles'. I randomly cut apart (sorta like puzzle pieces) an 8.5" x 11" piece of heavy off-white card stock... and will treat each piece as an individually designed tile/piece, with no special intention to have the 'strings' flow from one piece to another. When each puzzle piece is finished, my plan is to reassemble the puzzle (on a colored piece of paper), leaving a space between each piece.
This first piece, done with sepia and black inks, is the right-lower design segment of the collage.
Happy tangling...
..... and thank you for visiting!
PS: Happy Birthday, Ero! Love you lots.....
