Zöpfe : Zöpfe

Zöpfe Challenge

Occasionally some friends put out a challenge for folks to make a representation of their idea.  This week is the Tangled Thursday – Time to give Zopfe a try.  Carolien was the author of this challenge – it is her first one  🙂   Heather says “now Carolien has a new challenge for us.  She wants us to use Zopfe in  a drawing.  Here’s what she had to say: I would love to see how you use Zöpfe in a drawing. I really love the look of it, but the outcome is never what I would like it to be when I draw it. Like it doesn’t like playing with the other tangles I choose. lol. So I’ve been wanting to explore it further, this seemed like an excellent time for that 🙂 ” So this is a ZIA (Zentangle Inspired Art) using Zöpfe.

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 starting to see light at the end of the tunnel – although there will be some real repair work in the house from this winter :)  So above is my Zöpfe Zentangle Tangle ZIA. This – of course – went in a very different direction than expected. This was fun – but I spent hours and hours looking and digesting what it was that I wanted to make because Zöpfe and I haven’t gotten along before  :)  I was totally inspired by Justine Ashbee’s work!!!  I do wish mine was less “sketchy and scratchy” but it was what I could do today 🙂 Thank you to everyone who made comments on my posts these last weeks. That means a lot to me!!

Which Tangle is Which?

Well this one is easy 🙂 It is all Zöpfe 🙂 There you have it!! 🙂

My Studio and Thank You!

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!! Thank you!! ~ Diane Clancy
