Inktober Tangles - Day 30 - Bownus by Angie Gittles CZT

Bownus is a lovely, curvy tangle that results in a realistic bow design. While the end result looks complex, it is actually really easy to draw.

I chose to “wrap” my tile as if it was a gift, placing a double bow off-center towards the lower right quadrant. I kept the decorations simple and elegant, allowing the actual shape of the bow stand out.

The shading was added to enhance the bow shape and add dimension to the over-all design.

This tangle sas so easy to draw, most of my time was spent shading and adding white chalk to the center panel of each part of the ribbon shapes. Even then, it was quick to complete.

I think this would be a lovely design for a gift card!
