Ok…so Spring Break is over and there is only another 4 weeks of school. That’s right campers…4 more weeks! I graduate on May 15th and I can resume my life!
I got on board with this week’s Diva Challenge (#212: Use My Tangle – Fanz by Susan Goetter) in a rather weird way. I was testing out a new pen (Tombow MonoTwin) on pink Strathmore Artagain paper…and I initially started with the much fatter end (and was really hating how fat the lines were coming out…duh!) Also, it is an “oil based” marker, so it’s a bleeder! It bled even further through the back of the paper when I did my spray fixative on it. But I cannot say I am displeased with the final result…it looks pretty cool.
Tangles are Fanz, Narwal, Flux, Knightsbridge, Tipple, and Heartburn. I should have the step outs for Heartburn (my first tangle) posted soon.
And I did get Diva Challenge #210: Spiral String finished. Colors a bit wonky for me, I used only the items from this months Art Snacks (http://www.artsnacks.co) box. It is a monotangle of Heartburn. On Fabriano Medioevalis paper (4.7 x 4.7). This paper is really kinda cool, and comes in pre-cut sizes of flat and folded cards with matching envelopes available. I found it rather cool to tangle on, and I love the deckled edges. Dick Blick carries it, so do most actual art supply stores (not Michaels.)
Your Fanz really really looks like fans! Yours are wonderfully evenly done….doing that is definitely a talent.

I love your Fanz design. The color is beautiful, and I thought it needed some little circles too – great minds, etc… Heartburn?? You crack me up, lady. Can't wait for the steps!

I do like your bold Fanz tile and the paper you used.
