Chosen tangles, no string. This tile is influenced by the Nightmare Before Christmas. Last month, I did the InktoberTangles challenge. That didn’t give me the opportunity to create a fun, Halloween-style tile. So, I decided to do it now. I love creepy-cute and Halloween. I’ve created art journals on this theme, and I’ve done a few tiles in the past, which you can see here . If you look through the Zentangle Gallery on this site, you can probably find more that fit this theme.
Time for a bit of fun… The kid got her braces removed on Tuesday. I posted a spread in a tiny art journal a little over a year ago. The spread was actually created in 2023. Having braces for 2 years isn’t fun. But the payoff is really worth it! Since I’ve been tangling evey day, I decided to create an illustration tile, using tangles to create a picture that is less abstract than normal. I wanted to capture the feeling of going to school and showing off her new smile to all of her friends and classmates.
