A Bouquet of Swaps

  Before anything else.... Here's my entry for the ZIA Swap #58 - "Everlasting Eternity".

  If you'd like to learn to draw Eternity, it can be found here.


  And as promised, here are the Travelling Tangles Project tiles that I've recently completed...

  First off, this was a lovely tile from Nicki Lehmann. She did Paradox, and I followed. Colours were added using watercolours, then shading was done using coloured pencils.




  This was a renaissance tile from Beth Bentz. I actually made a time-lapse video of this tile. You can watch the video here.


  Last but not least, this is a tile from Kimmy. She started off with Ixorus and Purk, so I thought to complete the tile using only official Zentangle patterns. I re-outlined her Purk using a Uni-Ball Signo Broad white to make it more opaque... Then added Hollibaugh, Betweed, Cadent, Meer, and Printemps. A few Cabbits might have snuck their way into the tile, too. ;)

  Shading outside of the gemstone was done using a blue coloured pencil to make the gem seem like it was glowing... While the rest of the shading on the tangles was done using a 2B pencil.



  Thanks for dropping by. :) I hope I've inspired you with my art, and I hope to see you again soon.

  Until next time, keep tangling!

You spin my head right round', right round'...

  Last month's weekly classes at Toa Payoh Central Community Club were awesome. It was a small class of five students. This month, we've doubled in numbers and are a very full class of ten students. Woohoo!

  Here's the mosaic we had for April's first class. My idea was that the quarter circles would link up to make full circles...


  But then some of the students found that they could be linked in more creative ways!

  Here's another class we did. It was inspired by the full moon mosaic.

  My lovely friend, Debbie New, celebrated her birthday in April. I made this Zendala as a gift to her.



  I also created a smaller Zendala featuring my tangle "Eternity".

  In other news, Debbie and I have started selling pet collar charms to raise funds for a good cause. We will be donating a part of the profits to an organisation that helps foster kittens in Singapore. We deliver worldwide! If you'd like to find out more, you can click this link.

  Inspired by the blings, I created these two bookmarks:


  Lastly, I completed a swap on swap bot. I almost only completed it half-way. Bad habit from creating too many tiles for Travelling Tangles Project. hahaha

  The postcard features "Cabbit". :>

ATCs Spring Swap

ATCs is an acronym for "Artist Trading Cards". I joined a swap over on Zentangle Artist Trading Card Swap Facebook group. Here are the tiles that I did:


  And some close-ups:




  In other news: Joni and I had a Zentangle workshop yesterday. It was lots of fun creating Mother's Day cards with the residents at Bukit Batok RC Zone 3. You can see some pictures I took of the event by clicking this link.

  Thanks for viewing. ^-^
