#shamWAYrockBOP
is a challenge to use the new tangle in a festive ST Paddy’s way.
I love the new tangle, WayBop, but this challenged all the processing parts of
my brain and gave me an intense and focused morning. The tangle was done
on a white tile and the borders were done with a Sharpie Rub-a-dub marker..
Color and shading done with #Derwent #Inktense pencils and #Sakurawaterbrush.
Drawn on an Opus tile, 10.5″ square, following a diagram found online several years ago. Where it called for the tangle, flux, I used half Rick’s way and half Maria’s way,
The mysterious plan found online several years ago. It fascinated me,
and I wanted to see what it looked like when drawn as directed.
Here’s a combination
of grid based
and organic tangles.
Grid Patterns are
Yincut and Tortuca
Organic tangles are
Enyshou, Fescu and Tipple

Who would have thought grids could be full of surprises?
Blending patterns and playing with shading are the keys here.

I once thought Crescent Moon was a boring tangle. My mind was opened during my CZT training in Rhode Island when we practiced on Apprentice tiles and this appeared.
I fell completely into Crescent Moon and have no idea if other tangles were even presented.

Shattuck is an excellent pattern. Shading on shrink plastic is tricky!

A 2014 New Year’s Swap.
I created a Tangle Legend spelling out
Celebrate Your Art. The post card is 4″ x 6″.
Creating legends is time intensive, so I used copies for the front of the post cards. Each recipient got a different design drawn on the back using the tangles from the front.
