ZenSnacks: B’Twined, Springkle, Balancing Act, Bales
I did these over the weekend, finishing them this morning. I chose two grid tangles and two organic tangles.
I love the way the visual focus of B’Tweed, changes as it is drawn and shaded. It is created inside of a normal grid and then becomes a visual diagonal pattern with the focus on the crosspoint!
Springkle is just fun! It can be used as a tangle enhancer, part of a blossom, or stand on it’s own! They can be drawn in a group to create an organic climbing tangle or ribbon. It’s a very versatile tangle.
Balancing Act is similar in style to Springkle and can be used in similar ways.
Finally, Bales is a tried and true tangle that is often taught as a beginner’s tangle. It’s based on a standard grid and is easy to draw. It seems a bit plain until the shading is added. Then it appears in all it’s glorious beauty!
On another note: This afternoon the computer is going into the shop for repair. (See previous post for details.)
