Bilt Abstract Art

Still playing with abstract art work over ink/watercolor-prepared papers. This one shows Bilt (Lisa Skeen), African Artist (Tina Hunziker), Zentwining (Lynn Mead and some treasure. Here’s the before and after tangling:

I'm really happy with the tangle Bilt - had never tried it before in depth, and now I’m in love with its woven look. Reminds me a bit of Betweed, but in a different way. Here are my studies:

Continuing my abstract work, I finished this one featuring Bailarine and Fishskirt (my own tangles) over ink-prepared papers. I love how weird this turned out!

This is what I've been up to during my holiday, abstract tangled art over super bold black and white inked background. Very different from my usual work, but I'm loving the power of black and white and the layered effects.

I think we are all a little in love with Tomàs Padro's new tangle Medusa. Here I'm posting two simple tiles where I explored the shading and different ways to construct the underlying ogee grid. I suspect Medusa is going to appear more in my work very soon!

I had a blast making these two pieces combining Wartz (Genevieve Crabe) with Sinkhole and Spherify! The Art Raffle gave me this difficult combination, but it was a fun experiment and I'm super happy with it.

Two pieces with Hollis over a triangular string, sprouting from a fancy triangular fragment. One of them also plays with 3D cuffs over Wyfore. Fun!

Last week Art Clubbers and I had a Tangle Play session including Wyfore - where we explore tangles and make index cards - and I decided to combine it with Drawings over a triangular string. Very fun to play with!
