Square One Fan Club, Summer Tangles, and Spoolies with Overlap Outlines


Square One week August 17 - August 23, 2018: FAN CLUB

My initial response to the challenge was: take a break. I wasn't all that keen into drawing Fan Club. Then, only God knows why, I ended up drawing two tiles. Go figure. The first tile is the result of a movie inspiration: 'Upside Down', a story of twin worlds, one rich one poor, each comprising the sky of the other. The movie didn't impress me much, but the concept came in handy.

...and here the pale-in-comparison Fan Club tile or the reason why my initial approach to this challenge was to skip it.

Summer Tangles 2018 next.

August 14, 15, 17, and 19 - Leafslide, Rashell, Floatfest, and Warped Eggs as texture. To give the tile more contrast I wanted to fill some of the Floatfest loops with black. I was pretty disappointed when I noticed there was exactly only ONE white space that didn't have a black loop touching. Guys, I have no idea how you can just draw and create wonderful beauties while I - obviously - need major planning!

August 13th - Bijou. I had absolutely no idea what to draw to make my tile 'bijou-y', but rings can be bijou, right? Here, too, I ended up with 2 tiles and sporting the same main subjects. My first result was the fully tangle loaded tile. The rings, or Bijoux, didn't stick out, so I made another, semi filled tile with the same rings (same rings? Who does that? I!). Now, in my eyes that is my Summer Tangle Bijou tile on the listing as August 13th. (Mental note: Susie, make auras! OOOOOOOras!!!!)

I have refresher #185 in the works since a few days, but the tangle combo doesn't work for me (Finery, Pezember, Lily-Eyes, Spoolies, and Puffy 8's). When I did the marathon refresher catch-up there were several tangle bundles I had difficulties with, but I always got something together pretty soon. Now, that I have more time, that 'time' is like a brain blocker. So there is some truth in the saying: If you want something done ask a busy person to do it.

Here 3 of the 5 tangles from the refresher I had never done before = Training Tiles.

Spoolies with Overlap Outlines.

Instead of making the overlaps look like they are over and under each other, I drew both outer lines, but not the other crossing lines.

"Hello, no-names!" Aren't they adorable little cuties? (When they don't play in my delicate fern plants during the night. Grrr***!!!!)

IAST 255, Summer Tangles, My new Tangle Mir.I.Am, and Square One


Square One August 3-9 featured the tangle ICANTOO. So I did it, too. Here with some Blueberry Pokeroot, a striped (and a non-striped) Toodles, and loads of Black Pearlz without dots but with hair-thin reflection lines.

And here come the Summer Tangles 2018 tiles. The days are passing faster than I can draw tiles. Let's start with July 29 and Scallamp.

Tangle Patterns: Scallamp, Black Pearlz



July 30 with Zenbutton. I am no fan of Zenbuttons, so for this challenge I took a rejected tile and made circles over the design and thus made a different kind of a Zenbutton. Actually...I quite like the idea.

Tangle Patterns: Zenbutton



August 1-3 and 5 with Knot Rickz, Chaist, Golven, All About V. This tile is the 2nd I made because the first one, an attempt to draw in the real Zentangle style, made no sense to me.

July 31 with Ringz. First there was no 31 July, then it was with Ringz, and then I wasn't sure which Ringz am I supposed to draw. There are 2 Ringz tangle with the exact same spelling, one by Laura A. Marks, CZT and the other by Alice Henden, CZT, so I drew them both.

Tangle Patterns: Ringz, Ringz



The last tile for today (Sat), done asap to make the publishing deadline...IAST #255 challenge with Konk and Flog. I hadn't done a IAST tile for a few weeks, so pressure was on.

My new tangle MIR.I.AM

I AM NOT PROPERTY!

I got an email this week from Animal Legal Defense Fund announcing their new campaign "I am not Property". With this social media campaign they want to rise awareness to the problem they face daily in American courts concerning our 4-legged family members. If you want to join and support the campaign which ends August 31st please visit their website to download the poster and get the  social media links where to post it.


I am not Property!!!...

Shadow will be "Sweet 16" September 7th!!!

I cross my fingers he makes it. He is rather weak, often disoriented, breathing is laborious at times, but he still eats like a horse. But all in all I would say he is OK for his age and equally important in good hands, his assisted living facility has an excellent 24-hour service. And when I say 24(!) hours I really do mean 24 hours!


GOOD NEWS!!!! She is baaaaa-ack!!!


Alive! and Well! Hurrah!

I first saw our missed cat Monday night while she was doing stretching exercises on the street. When I spotted her I instantly stepped out of the shower, threw a towel on, grabbed my mobile and shot this sequence of images through the gate. Once I got returned clad in decent clothes she had gone.





Then Thursday morning I went over to my friend's house to feed the fish and who was waiting there for me? The cat minus pregnant belly. She is back to being shy again and what ever happened to her babies I think we will never know. Well, my neighbors and I are just happy seeing here alive and well!





Animal Happy Day

July 27th with "Microtangle". For a long time I had no idea what I could draw to represent Microtangle (work small). Then it hit me. I am a stamp collector...stamps are small. So here 3 stamps created by me using tangles Spearator, Mir.I.Am, and Puff Ball Tops.

This Krokus fun tile was a quick one I wanted to squeeze in before going to bed late Friday night. When I saw Helen Williams' Krokus, I knew I had to draw it. I figured the step-out comes later so I tried to figure it out by myself, which wasn't as easy as I first thought. A few days later and still no step-out I checked the database sites - just in case - and there it was: Krokus by Sue Schneider, CZT. Sorry, Sue, but I don't think I have ever seen it before...

Tangle Patterns: Krokus
