Monday's "I Am The Diva" prompt #182 for August 25,2014 is "Stripes". Done on a greeting card. I noticed after I finished that the houses have different roof or wall lines when you turn them from vertical to horizontal.

Have a good week and enjoy all the other pen & ink drawing at iamthedivaczt.blogspot.com

Would love to have your comments.

This week the Diva challenge was to use a sepia color in our designs.  I was a little hesitant because I love the traditional black and white designs.  However, once I got started with color, "Eureka!", I loved it and decided to use some blue, green,and orange.   I had decided to make a tree's roots in the sepia color, and wanted my other patterns to be organic.  I really like the final effect.  My title reflects the fact that our roots are the source of everything that comes later in our lives.  Go on over to visit all the other artists,including Laura,aka"The Diva",to see their superb designs!  http://iamthedivaczt.blogspot.com/   PS, don't be thrown off by the date on this post.  In order to get all my tangles on a separate page tab in my blog, I have to put them all on December 2010 so they are at the end of all my posts.
