Diva Weekly Challenge #304 - Waybop

Diva challenge #304 is Waybop.  I did a geometrically inspired variation...kind of reminds me of spirograph.  The background is a variation of a fun tangle I saw on Pinterest by JJ La Barbera called Shimono.

Diva Weekly Challenge #302 - Hamadox

This week's challenge is Hamadox.  I drew 3 different variations of Hamadox with Neuron in the background.  I tried using a new sketch book of very smooth paper for pens.  The way the pen glided across the paper was soothing.  Shading is not as successful since the paper has no tooth, but it is fun to try different surfaces.



Here it is before shading and extensions of Neuron outside the border.

Diva Weekly Challenge #301 - Diva Dance and Paradox

This week's challenge was a DuoTangle of Diva Dance and Paradox.  This was my first try at Diva Dance and I enjoy the versatility of the three variations, Waltz, Foxtrot and Rock 'n Roll.  I don't particularly like the composition I ended up with.  I drew a string and then just worked the patterns within the string I had created.  It feels somewhat random to me, but it was relaxing to draw because I didn't do too much thinking as I went.

There is a trade off for me between the ease of just tangling without planning or composing and the end result being something I think is visually pleasing or interesting.
