Gloria J Zucaro's "Monument to Ruth"



3.5" Square Official Zentangle Tile(140lb. Watercolor paper)
$3.00 unframed
Framing Options tab at top of blog page.
This is in the Daily Paintworks auction.

The "I am the Diva" challenge this week is to do a duo tangle using only the patterns of "Hibred" and "Stircles".
This is somewhat difficult because some other patterns tend to creep in while you are not looking!  It is like having to paint with a very limited palette, a challenge indeed! 
I decided to do a second one with a subject.  It is called "Monument"
3.5" Square Official Zentangle Tile(140lb Watercolor Paper)

This will also be up for auction at Daily Paintworks
I didn't realize it at the time I was drawing it, but the death last night of an artist friend, Ruth Bolotin, may have influenced my thoughts.  We will miss her sweet smile.

  1. Nice work, I especially like the use of repetitive circles in the first tile.

  2. These are so beautiful! The second one reminds me of blackwork embroidery! The first one has so many nice variations! I know what you mean when you say other patterns want to sneak in! :D
