Today I just wanted to do something simple, splash some water color on a paper and doodle.
When trying to decide what paper to use, I remembered that I just saw some tiny books I made a couple of years ago. And they are made with water color paper.
In the summer of 2018, while visiting the Bay Area in California, my daughter and I attended a workshop by Andrea Chebeleu at her craftstore/Atelier: "A work of Heart". It wasn't the first time we attended a workshop at this lovely place and I certainly hope it wasn't the last.
Where we made a lot of different types of books. in this picture you see the ones I made on the left and the one my then 11year old daughter made.
So I decided to use this booklet first.
I added some Schmincke Akademie and Hordam Aquarell watercolor spashes. I used the colors (524, 551, 553 and 509)
I then decided I would draw an "organic: 'tangle on each page.
The tangles I used are called:
Algae, Featherfall, Coroline, Cartoosh, Toonzeez, Dooledo, Blooming Butter (variant because I messed up :), Flooka, Zander, Laria, Sochi, Fennell, Festune Too, Kuki, Finery, Pflandi, Stinger, Mimi-meemer, Henna-Drum, Angle Fish, Bunzo, Zinger, Phicops, Deflour, Asclep, 'dillo, Pepper, Verdigogh, Dragonair, Quib, Cat-kin
Some of the names might be incorrect, this is how I marked them in my collection book of Tangles. And not all of them are Official Zentangle tangles.
It was super fun to work in a little book, and since I have all the supplies maybe I should make a bunch more and draw in all the tangles I like. Check back later for a post about it ;)
