Celtic Knot Challenge

I've been wanting to do another one of these. I live the challenge of making sure that the over and under are right and the math that goes into it. I will do another one of these either this specific one or the next one. But digitally. I like the ability to "undo". :).



I have a couple ideas of how I would like to redo things. Im not sure we will see.  :)
Have a great day!

Bright Owl Dare #96

I really like how this one turned out. :) I really like seeing my progress as an artist.


Have a great day!!

Bright owl and Diva Challenges

I had a lot of fun with this  Zendala. I actually did two but this is my favorite of the two. Ill be posting both.


My favorite


This one is the first one I did. I like 
Some parts of it. But I didn't like the outside shapes. I don't feel like it flowed well.

Just thought I would post something fun since its been a while since Ive posted.  I didn't participate in any challenges last week because I was doing the big project.  I ordered some new pens and so far I am loving them.  When I finish a project with them I will post them.

I created this Mandala while goofing around.  Sometimes we just need to not think and let the art flow.  I don't always like the way those projects turn out so I don't share them.  But this one did turn out pretty good I think.

Have a Great Day!
