Zendala Dare #84 and 19 more.
This is my mandala for #84 from Erin at the Bright Owl.I don't really like it, but I don't feel like doing another one...
This is the one I really wanted to share.
19 templates were used for this 16 x 20 inch piece.
2,7,28,41,42,43,50,52,53,54,55,58,59,62,70,7,73,75 and 79.
I worked on this for about 7 days - long hours. I just couldn't stop!
These are some progress photos. I used some magic marker 'liquid crayons' for this project. I found them in my art supplies. I'm guessing they are from the early 80s, but still worked quite well. Next time I will try again to leave some white.
It just didn't work out this time, even though I was going to...
Now I can go back to see what other people did with these templates!

ReplyDeleteThank you all! I really am having fun with this. Inspired by http://tinkeredart.blogspot.com/ and 'Peter draws', I am going to do some with the woodburner and see how that goes!
ReplyDeleteThese are great Colleen. What focus, attention and color you bring to this art! I especially love that you've posted your design process. I think that is what makes a blog post so much more valuable and a cut above the rest.
ReplyDeleteI also like that you wrote how you felt about your #84 dare result. I'm willing to bet that if you don't look at it for a bit, the Art Fairy will visit and you will soon see it with a new appreciation for it's design.
