Tan Depth Lesson
On Wednesday Art Clubbers and I had a live online class on Zoom covering a style I’m calling “Tan Depth”. This is a SUPER tricky technique that involves adding thin auras to 2-D shape to convey the illusion of depth. It’s not as easy as it seems and requires a little bit (a lot, actually) of thinking.
As usual, we started from the very basics learning how to create the illusion of depth in some simple openings.
After we got the basics down, we got things a little more complicated with some stylized Fescu (Zentangle).
The moved on to work on multiple levels, making things a lot more complex.
We finished the project with some 3D shading, including rim lighting.
Look at all those amazing pictures!!!!! So much fun, and what an ultra advanced class!

This is Jenice Kee's Jeweled Garden, part of Zentangle Beyond Language event. Halfway through, silly me decided to add a hatched ribbon, leaving no room for the other tangles! I like the result anyway, THANK YOU Jenice for a fantastic project.
