Zentangle Challenge #70 - Sepia

The Zentangle Challenge for this week (#70), from "I am the diva" (www.iamthedivaczt.blogspot.com) is to do a zentangle adding the color sepia (or brown). I just received my zendala tile kit so took the opportunity to try this challenge on my first of the pre-printed tiles! I used a sepia 005 Prismacolor, black 01 Micron and a sepia watercolor pencil. To me this tile looks like a winter seed pod bouquet... feels a bit odd since I spent the entire day in my spring garden and winter seems so far away! I love to read your comments, and I appreciate the time it takes to write them. Have a wonderful day.

A wonderful zendala with just the right amount of sepia to soften the black!

This is gorgeous. I need to get some of those prestrung zendalas. They are so beautiful after you add your own tangles. Your use of black versus sepia is very nice. I really like this one/

The use of subtle colours has made your work of art quite soothing to the eyes!

It is very organic, which I really like. You are right it does look like a beautiful seedpod, one you would keep to use in a bouquet of dried grasses and flowers for a Fall arrangement. Really beautiful.

Lovely Zendala. The lacy effect around the edge really sets off your seed pods!

I love these tiles...and you've done a beautiful job with this tangle!

Your challenge turned out great. I suppose it does look a little seedish, but it's sure purdy!! LOL

I think you did a wonderful job. I love the organic feel to the tile, you should be very happy with the way this turned out! Great response to the challenge!

This is a great zendala! Love your patterns... and the delicate-ness (is that a word??) of your Verdigoh border gently ties the pods together. Nice.
