Holiday Negative Space  Challenge
Occasionally some friends put out a challenge for folks to make their representation of their idea. It is my turn to choose the challenge this week. This week is the Tangled Thursday – Holiday Negative Space. So I say “here is my challenge … leave negative space that results in some holiday or winter image.” So this is a ZIA (Zentangle Inspired Art) creating a negative space or shape without any marks. I was planning on a star but I couldn’t get it right … so I tried a couple of more shapes and eventually an angel came out well enough! 🙂
Zentangle Enticed Me
Zentangle has become popular the last couple of years and I have been intrigued and just starting put my attention to it. I am able to be more in the flow again – whew! So above is my Holiday Negative Space Zentangle Tangle ZIA. This – of course – went in a very different direction than expected! Thank you to everyone who made comments on my posts these last weeks. That means a lot to me!!
Which Tangle is Which?
The bottom of the angel’s dress is Barberpole. The left hand edge of her dress is Rixty. The right hand side of her dress is SP-Eye-Ryl.  SP-Eye-Ryl is also in several other places – it is the leafy tangle. To the right of her head is Jetties – the marble looking tangle. Her right hand is defined by Marasu – it looks like a snail. Trio is under her skirt, under the Barberpole. They are sort of heart shaped. Then Beadlines is underneath the Trio and to the right of Rixty. There you have it!! 🙂
I am organizing my studio again to be able to work and now only a table has tons of stuff dumped on it – but the rest is organized!! (My studio always gets filled up when there are projects in the house that need a place to dump a bunch of stuff for awhile!! LOL!!) Thank you for stopping by!! I LOVE comments!! ~ Diane Clancy

Hi Diane, Great job, I could see the angel right away. Love the way you used the curves of the SP-Eye-Ryl and Barber pole to define the gown. Great way to make the tangles do the work for you.
Thanks for this challenge. It made me think.
I added your link to Mister Linky for this challenge on my blog
Thank you so much, Heather!! I was trying hard to make the tangles define the space – not so easy this time 🙂 Glad you liked the challenge 🙂
Nice work, Diane. Love your use of colour. It took me a bit to find the angel, but I see it now. Really nice use of the different patterns. Well done!
I totally forgot about this. Sorry about that. I’ll try to post something before Christmas.
Have a great week.
Thank you so much, Marie!! Glad you couldn’t find the angel right away 🙂 Makes it more subtle 🙂 🙂
