2nd Attempt at Ruutz

2nd Attempt at Ruutz

Again working with Eni Oken’s Ruutz Zentangle pattern. This time I DID plan the center design.  I’m not sure if you can see the faded pencil line behind one of the star-lines, I was attempting to do drop-shading there but just couldn’t get it right, so I erased it.  Le sigh.  One of these days I’ll get it right.

Yes again I forgot a before pic.  Something about this tangle makes you want to jump right into the shading.

Maybe I’ll remember for the “double challenge” I’ll be embarking on tomorrow.

Stay tuned!

This is the second phase of the Tree of Life work in progress.  Added color and depth, and working out the wheels.

 

This piece has been created with nothing but pencil, micron pens and prismacolor pencils.  

 

I'll try to get a better quality picture of the piece in the next stages.

Tree of Life (WIP)

I thought I would share the stages of the zentangled/doodleart Tree of Life I've been working on.  It's not exactly a step-out so to speak, but the pictures should provide a general idea on how this piece came to be.

Below is the picture of the first stage, no color or finished work here, but I'm loving her just the same. 

Stay tuned for more Tree of Life pics as the project progresses.
