This 'tile' is in my Moleskine sketchbook where I set out tangling the outline of a tile as usual but kept adapting as I went along because I didn't like what was emerging. Eventually I really had a mess but, remembering the Zentangle principle that nothing is a mistake, I was determined NOT to glue something over it but to adapt & overcome. So I filled in the whole of the tile shape using the 0.7 Letraset Fine Line Drawing Pen (the one that I mentioned smudges when combined with a Tombow Blender Pen), then tangled & coloured over it using white & gold Pentel K118 Hybrid Gel Grip Pens.

Beautiful! Love the gold and white against the black background
Hi Paula, like this combi and Betweed is such a lovely pattern! Also your previous one is lovely with the colouring! warm greet Miranda
Gosh Paula, to fill in the whole tile with your pen must have taken a while, you must be pleased with the outcome though, is looks stunning. I very much like the waved effect that you have created on the Hollibaugh tangle, it gives a lovely ripple effect and using Betweed complements this pattern so well, a very flowing, pleasing tile.
This is so dramatic - love it.
What a great outcome to your tile it must have taken you ages to fill in your tile with the black pen
I love this it's so striking with the gold and white on the black
