The fragment that I used in the center of the tile above is Zentangle's E4 embellished with metallic gold dots. I came up with my own fragment design for the border. Instead of drawing this on a regular box grid, I drew individual "tiles" and filled them with the fragments.
I liked the first tile so well that I drew a companion for it. I drew the tile below on a regular box grid and filled it with only Fragment E4. For both tiles I used a Staedtler carmine fine liner for the red parts, a Faber-Castell burnt carmine colored pencil for some of the shading and a metallic gold Gelly Roll pen for the gold dots. The fine gray lines on the tile below were drawn with a pencil.
These are both stunning Linda. I think they would make very classy Christmas cards!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jem. I hadn't thought of using them for Christmas cards. I've been busy making beadwork for Christmas presents and haven't had time to think about cards. It's crazy to think that Christmas is just around the corner.
DeleteLinda, these are quite lovely. I really like color combo, the tile format, and your "spokes" border in particular.
