I felt so inspired by her work, and learned lots. She is absolutely wonderful, and so encouraging.
So, this week, while my Mom has been recovering in hospital, she sleeps a lot. Plenty of opportunity to tangle!
I was amazed by what I had the courage to try, after even one lesson with Brenda. All but two of the tangles are new to me (Jonqal and Diva's Dance, I have used before. Other than that, it was full speed ahead with some of the fabulous new tangles Brenda taught me.
I'm so proud of myself, and must admit I'm loving the oooo's and ahhhhh's from my family, who refuse to acknowledge this as an art form, at all.
It is about 8" x 10", and done completely with Sakura Pigma pens, right from .01 to .08, plus the Pigma Graphic #1, to help me with my nemesis... blacking in.
I can't come up with a name for this.. it just hasn't gelled in my mind. If you think of one, please let me know. I'd love to hear it.
I hope you enjoy it, as much as I enjoyed working on it.
Til next time, happy tangling!

This reminds me of a circus, or rollercoaster park, if that helps with the name. You are improving very drastically with your creativity and artwork. This is beautiful. It is really rewarding to follow your work and see your growth as an artist.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, State of Mind Designs, for the wonderful, encouraging comment. I do feel like I'm really in a growth spurt right now. I am enjoying following your work as well. You do so many original, unique methods and designs. I agree with you about the circus and rollercoaster park... It occurred to me though, as I came to this post again, that "Leaps and Bounds" may be what I call it, to signal a landmark in my journey.
