The Diva's Challenge this week is to use the tangle Mi2 & since I still have limited knowledge of tangle patterns I keep an eye out for what both Laura Harms (The Diva) & Laura Palmer (TanglePatterns.com) post regarding patterns & strings & use those to tinker about with in pencil when I have an odd moment. I was in the middle of working through some patterns in my Basics Zentangle book this afternoon when I made myself a cup of tea & happened to see one of those pencil tinkerings. Somehow I ended up making this tile which I realised that I could then enter into The Diva's challenge. One of the patterns I was working on from the books today was Swirls & that sort of crept in all by itself & that was how I recalled having seen a challenge that Alice (The Creator's Leaf) had mentioned based upon swirls in artwork.

Wow Paula, this is stunning,very individual and flowing, love the border as well. I am still struggling with the shading on this tangle.
There is a lot of movement in this tangle and the shading makes such a difference and gives it dimension as well. You are progressing in leaps and bounds - great stuff.
Very harmonious, balanced and beautiful.
Fabulous Paula, a very intricate piece of work. you must be really pleased with how this turned out. I really like your overall design, swirls is a pattern I really like, and Mi2 looks like one to try out. Well done for entering the challenge as well, Judith x
Great work Paula, this is an ambitious pattern and this is a great tile, really enhanced by the shading and the black mounting is a great idea and one I often use on cards. Hope you are having a good weekend! Elaine x
Great Paula, it has become a lovely tangle...like your shading and the movement in the drawing! warm greet Miranda
Wow - Paula this is fantastic! I am truly in awe - beautiful!
I find your tile very relaxing, almost like a prayer. Blessings!
The back and white tones made a nice contrast to the pieces that were in color. I was surprised to read the size of your image. Very intricate!
Mesmerizing Paula! I could stare at this for hours!
Beautiful zentangle that's perfect for this week's IA swirl challenge. Welcome to the Inspiration Avenue challenge!
