tangles: Auraknot, Beadlines, Florz |
I have some Pinflair Stepper shapes which includes a star in various sizes. The smallest star fits comfortably onto a Zentangle tile three times so I thought I'd draw out the variations of the Auraknot pattern when skipping one, two & three points (skipping four points doesn't work terribly well on a five pointed star).
tangles: Auraknot, Keenees |
Although I'd not set out to join in Laura Harms' Weekly Challenge I found the little circular tangle pattern Keenees (by Donna Hornsby) she'd set seemed to want to fit into the indented points of my stars. A garland of Keenees baubles evolved as well so not only do I have another Seasonal tile for the Chocolate Baroque theme, but I can enter Laura's Challenge too.

These are both amazing in their detail and I would find it difficult to choose between the two as they are both so apt for the theme. Very interesting to see the variations in the aura knot with different 'skips' - thanks so much for sharing. the keenees works so well as a string of baubles too and the repeating aura around them ties in with the central design too.
Great stars Paula, perfect seasonal theme. The shading is perfect and I love the keenees, they make me think of Christmas bells! Elaine x
Very interesting variations on the Auraknot, they are beautiful 3d patterns and the Florz and beadline on your first tile give it even more movement. Keenees complements it so well and it definitely suits the theme. Fab tiles.
Both Zentangle designs are stunning Paula. I especially like the 2nd one. Amazing work ! Have a great weekend, Shirley
Great star tangles Paula theses are both amazing but I especially love the top one

Great Auraknot stars! They go well together with Keenees.
You are a tangle queen, you have mastered this technique so beautifully!
Very impressive Paula!
The design, the shading...it's breathtaking really!
TFS~
Paula these drawings put me into a trance. I keep looking at the shading and movement each of these intricate shapes hold. You are the queen of tangling!
Love the stars....really am attracted to the second tile with the keenees!
Amazing, Paula! I love the way they look like woven basket stars. Blessings!
Well I really felt like I was looking down intoo those woven stars - such brilliant layering and shading :)

Incredible! You are so good at Zentangling.
paula - i love the star where you skipped 3 points - it's beautiful! (all of them are, but i particularly love this one!)
happy new year! have you looked into the CZT trainings this coming year yet? i can't make any promises until i see how badly how president screws up our taxes with this whole fiscal cliff mess we have going on, but i hope i can still get to one if you come :)
Happy New Year Paula!! I'm intrigued by the Chocolate Baroque Zentangle group--pending approval...more zentangle fun! Yay! I hope you have a wonderful, healthy, happy, artful, and peace filled new year and I look forward to seeing more of your work! =0)
