In the final week of the course Marie showed two different ways of creating white tangles coloured with Tombow Markers. The first uses the Tombow Glue Pen as a resist & the second a white gel pen on vellum. Of the 3 white pens (Pergamano, Pentel Hybrid Gel Grip K118 & Sakura Gelly Roll) that I tried, I found the Gelly Roll gave the best results when tangling.

Vellum Tangle
tangles: Crescent Moon, Florz, Knightsbridge, Mooka
Tombow Markers direct to vellum colouring, mounted with
brads onto textured silver cardstock matted on deep pink cardstock |
I struggled rather with the Draw & Blend technique - this is the best one.

i didn't realize the jellys were part of marie's class - ha! i need to get started back with week 3 - i love your jellyfish - i think this will be a fun lesson :)
wow, wow, wow! The Mackintosh style rose is my favourite but they are all brilliant!
All three are beautiful, the second is my favourite. I like the tulip/flower design and how the white pops. Take care, Shirleyx
Three more beautiful pieces of 'homework' I can see you get such a lot from these courses. I'd say the tulip is my favourite but difficult choice.
What a feast for the eyes Paula.
Needless to say I love the colour palette. The first has a lovely Celtic feel to it, wonderful how you have achieved that, but I think the second one has to be my favourite today, the intricacy of the flower but most of all the wonderful tangling in the leaves.

Nice 'Mackintosh' type rose Paula and I like the Shattuck tangle on the leaves, gives them a lovely curl. The patterns on the vellum flower head are brilliant and remind me of fritillary plants while the outline makes the whole image pop. Your man o' war jelly fish is really clever with great tendrils. Some really interesting artwork, thanks for sharing.
Great tangles Paula I love your jelly fish

These are all great. Although tangling is not for me I really admire the way you have succeeded at it and produced these lovely pieces of work. I think I like the jelly fish best because the colours are so lovely, and I like the tendrils.
