Gloria J Zucaro's "Thank You Ann"

This week has been filled with efforts to close the deal on my townhouse.  Repair men and painters at the prospective buyers request.  The bank appraisal is on the 18th.  I am asking everyone to pray that it appraises at the level of the sales contract.  Thank you in advance! :>)  

This little card is for Ann who sent me a delicious Edible Arrangement after my surgery.  It was a perfect gift , light and refreshing.  I am portraying the pieces of pineapple(flower & stars), the strawberries and grapes.  There were also slices of melon,so good!  Sorry it took me so long, Ann.

4 inches square on watercolor paper.  The sticks that are used in the fruit for stems are made using the Zentangle "Hollibaugh" pattern and the table top is "Leaflet"

I used Micron pens, Staedtler "ergo soft" coloured pencils and Artist Loft Dual Tip Brush Markers.

I am posting this to Paint Party Friday, Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest.

Gloria J Zucaro's "Let's Play Pinochle!"

"Pea-nuckle #1"

3.5" Square

My first attempt at the new tangle by Molly Hollibaugh.

I found this very difficult, because I didn't have my "S's" lined up.

I did like doing it on a black Zentangle Tile, however.  It saved time in the fill areas.

I used "Purk" and "Footlites" & "Sannibelle" in addition.  

"Pea-nuckle #2"

Still very much a struggle!  I was ready to graph the page out to do this, but that goes against the whole idea of Zentangle.  I used "Mooka" as well.

"Pea-nuckle 3#"

Well, I tried the tips given by Cris@TangledUpInArt.  They were very helpful.  But I still am not satisfied.  I can see a lot more practice needed on this tangle!  But it did push me to go past one example!  Good Practice...Have a good week everyone!  Thanks, Laura.  Go see all the other entries, please, as you have time!   http://iamthedivaczt.blogspot.com
