Zentangle® – May 2021
/So many tiles to choose from! I colored the patterns (drawn with a black ultra-fine Sharpie pen) using miscellaneous gel pins that my sister had from the last years of her teaching career; the large number of colors and types of the pens prompted me to make a lot of tiles – even though some pens were drying out and stopped working before the tile was finished. The iridescence of the many of the gel pens does not show up well in the scanned imaged; the actual tiles look more interesting than the scanned versions! There were 91 images to choose 31…more challenging than usual. Enjoy the May Zentangle mosaic…..
I like gel pens for fill rather than drawing of patterns since the pens tend to skip and blotch more easily than the Sharpies.
The gel pens were a great diversion for my time in Texas in May. I’ll look forward to using them again next time I am in Texas.
