Diva Weekly Challenge #305 - Duotangle with Marasu and Molygon

I missed this challenge last week...Molygon and Marasu duotangle.  I am working on shading techniques.  Can be a challenge with such a small scale.  Looking for depth and roll on the Marasu. I remembered to take a before photo after I had shaded a little bit.

Diva Weekly Challenge #306 - Amphora

Amphora by Lily Moon is the Diva weekly challenge.  I did it in my sketch book because I didn't think I was going to like it, but I am very pleased with the outcome.  I have been having fun exploring the shading techniques in Eni Oken's 3D Tangle: Shading Fearlessly.  The two photographs are the same tile just photographed in different lights.  Neither of them are quite right.  The top one looks yellow and the bottom looks washed out.  Any suggestions?

Square One: Purely Zentangle Weekly ONE - Yew Dee and Por Fin

This tile combines the last two weekly ONE's, Yew Dee and Por Fin.  I struggled to make a tile I was happy with using Yew Dee, but after reading Eni Oken's ebook on shading, (which can be found here:  https://enioken.com/) I like the 3D quality that can be created with this pattern.  You will also see a little Diva Dance and Daggerly sneaking in from the bottom corners.
