Zendala Dare #97

This is my first Zendala Dare Challenge from Erin at www.thebrightowl.blogspot.com. You can see the template that I used on her blog. When I saw the tear drop shapes I immediately thought of three tangles: Onion Drops by Sharon Garcia, Cruffle by Sandy Hunter and Inapod by Carole Ohl. I used all three tangles in the various teardrop shapes. I also used Enyshou, a Zentangle®-original tangle designed by Maria Thomas. I think my attempt at drawing Enyshou looks more like purple locks of hair. I embellished my tile with drawing dots around the different shapes. Overall I'm pleased with how my first Zendala challenge turned out. I'm definitely going to try the next challenge.

Pens: Sakura Pigma Micron pens (.01 & .005) in sepia and purple.
Tile: 300 Series Bristol Artist Tile, 4 x 4 by Strathmore

  1. Nice job, particularly for a first endeavor. I like your use of dots to embellish. Have not done Enyshou although saw it highlighted in a recent Zrntnagle® newsletter.
