Gloria J Zucaro's "Just Call Me Rosie the Riveter"

8"H x 8"W Original Oil on Raymar Panel

This is my entry for the "You Know the Drill" challenge offered by Eileen McCoy on the DailyPaintworks.  I am also using this as my Paint Party Friday post this week.  Happy PPF!
I love my electric drill, which for me is really my electric screwdriver.  I mainly use it when framing my paintings or taking down curtain rods, etc.  I wasn't liking my drill all alone, but once I added the flower, I felt good about it.

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)
$3.00 unframed
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.


Gloria J Zucaro's "Cirquital & Munchin"

3.5"H x 3.5"W Original Pen and Ink on Zentangle Tile.
$5.00 Unframed.  $7.00 Framed. 
This Zentangle tile has the two patterns known as "Cirquital" and "Munchin".  The challenge from the http://iamthedivaczt.blogspot.com/ site this week.  We were to use only these two patterns in our design.  Not an easy challenge, as there is the temptation to add in some filler designs, and thereby defeat the challenge purpose. I had never done either of these designs before.  Aparently the "cirqu" part of the first design refers to circus.  With that in mind, I thought of Cirque du Soleil and red and white circus tents.  The balls tumbling across my design, are to represent the tumblers in Cirque du Soleil. And the Munchin could represent the high wire acts?!
