I mentioned previously that I had a very old Zentangle kit. I also have a newer one that has the lighter green color on the outside. I pulled it out because I wanted to see what was in it and I found a standard Zentangle tile that already had a string drawn on it! Actually there are a few with strings already drawn on them.
I chose this one to work on. The string was fairly complex, so I thought it might be fun. The string had several small loops around the outside edge, so I started drawing orbs and basically filled them in with Tipple.
Then, I used the random number generator on my phone to select the tangles to work with.
Sometimes, random choices work well, and sometimes they don’t, but they always result in an interesting tile.
I need to recalibrate my scanner, I think it is automatically boosting the contrast when I scan! I will see if I can fix it before the next post.
