Lettering Video

I found this short video by Joanne Fink very helpful when thinking about lettering and adding tangles!

Cool Tree Pattern

We were hiking today and I came across this cool pattern on a tree - I'm going to play around with the design to see if I can come up with a pattern!  I love the way the middle is darker so I'll try shading it different ways too.  I also picked up a few of the rocks around the tree to try tangling on!

Tangelation Challenge

I wanted to share some of the work I have been doing in my tangle a day calendar.  I have been forcing myself to come up with different variations of the same tangle and here are some examples.  This has been a great exercise for me and serves as a way for me to remember my tangles! 

Cubine with square, circle, and triangle variations

Phicops variations  (this is similar to Fengle - so you KNOW I like this one!)

Poke Root and Poke Leaf variations - with auras and perfs!
