White on Black Challenge
Each week the Diva puts out a challenge for folks to make their representation of her idea. This week is the Weekly Challenge #218: “White on Black”. So here is what the Diva says this week “The challenge is to do a white on black tile or zentangle inspired piece of art – using a white pen on black paper. …. personally, i love the look of the white on black tiles, but i never seem to have the patience for them because there’s a lot more ‘finessing’ of the gel pens, i find. Â It seems that the ink will flow better if you almost ‘dab’ the gel onto the page, and then move very slowly. Â Which, in hindsight, may be a good thing when it comes to creating a tile. Â I find the white on black to be quite challenging.
Zentangle Enticed Me
Zentangle has become popular the last couple of years and I have been intrigued and am putting my attention to it. Spring is HERE!!! 🙂 And now we face all the repair work from such a tough winter – but it is SO great to have windows open!! Thank you to everyone who made comments on my posts these last weeks. That means a lot to me!! I had not been in a position to return comments as I would wish 🙂 Thank you!! I need to catch up again I believe 🙂
Which Tangle is Which?
The spirals with the stripes and ruffs is Tuscadero. The black sky with stars behind Tuscadero is Star Map – all the lines and little dots. 🙂 There you have it!! 🙂

My Studio and Thank You!
I am organizing my studio again to be able to work and a table has tons of stuff dumped on it – and more stuff is dumped in there from the holidays!! (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!! NOW with all the repair work to come, there will be more dumping!! LOL!!) Thank you for stopping by!! I LOVE comments!! Thank you!! ~ Diane Clancy

Candy canes among the snow flakes. Love it. Or sea urchins swimming in the deep deep sea.
Candy canes sound cool!! Thank you!! 🙂
Very nice, Diane. I really like the Star Map on the black as a background!
Glad you like the Star Map!! 🙂
The star map background is wonderful – and I love your analogy about dabbing and taking life slowly…good advice and nice work!
Thank you about the Star Map!! 🙂
I like the stars in the background very much. Looks like the 4th of July :). I must try it myself.
Delighted you like the stars!! 🙂
So lovely tile! Looks like fireworks on a starry sky! Very nicely done!
Thank you about the fireworks!! 🙂
