Color or black and white?

Here is another earth day postcard that I drew while we were driving back from Indiana last weekend.  I had a good time starting with Rain and then drawing Reticulated and then adding more Rain so there is the illusion of depth.  I also added Hatchpatch and Arc Flower.  Finally, I added some color with ranger distress inks.  What do you like more?  Black and White or Color?

I love them both!! That is what is so cool about Zentangle! Now I too am scanning the black and white before I put any colour on so I have both options..
BTW , how do you tangle while in the car?

I do find both to be very lovely, but I am sticking with my first impression as I feel the design in black and white emphasizes the tangles -not so much with the color. I think it distracts me from the tangles.

I really love it in Black & white when I want to truly enjoy the tangle patterns. It is clean & the lines stand out. On the other hand, I really like it colored. It now has lost the tangled patterns & becomes more about the depth of the colors. The colors that you used have some real depth & are very stunning.
