Organic Tangle Patterns

One of the first things that attracted me to Zentangle and all the patterns is how patterns can be used to represent natural things like rocks, flowers, leaves, etc. and when I saw this week's Diva's Challenge, I was excited.

I have done several pieces that depict 'nature'. The one you see above was done a year ago. 


And here is one from my Tangle Journal.


And here is one I did last night using Tagh, Jetties, B'tweed, and Featherfall. I have a difficult time using Festherfall, I think it's beautiful but just can not grasp how it's done.

Hope you have a great Tuesday!!

    That snail is just gorgeous and the Verdigogh is nicely done too. As for the Challenge tile, what a brilliant use of patterns.

    Tagh, Jetties, B'tweed and Featherfall? Okay, just admit it. You've got fairies working on this stuff with you :D ! I don't know what you're talking about, mostly, but I love the results. Spread those wings, Angelcake!

    I tried featherfall for the first time the other night. If it looked half as good as yours, I would have been pleased! Lovely work

    Très joli. j'aime beaucoup le dernier dessin, l'équilibre de sa composition.

    Very attractive. I like very much the last drawing, the balance of its composition.

    All tiles are wonderful but I really love your snail one!!! It's so special :-) Great use of patterns for the snail and the flowers and nice contrast and shading, really beautiful.

    Charming pieces. I love the first, quite whimsical piece, the one in the vase is terrific, and I think your Featherfall is done perfectly!
