This week’s diva challenge is a monotangle, so I won’t be combining it with any other focus tangles or challenges. I’ve not really used Striping before. But when I saw it as a monotangle, it reminded me of some tiles I’d seen on facebook using a line technique for getting your mojo back when you’ve gotten in a drawing slump. Here’s a link to the video of what I’m talking about.
I guess I should have taken a scan of the lines I drew for the “string” but alas, I didn’t. I did like Ellen said in the video and just drew some random lines. Then I started adding some wider lines than what she demonstrated in the video since I was going to blacken some in for my stripes.
I decided not to give all of them the sparkle but to keep some of the stripes solid. I also decided not to fill the entire square. I liked how some of the shapes were well defined and not muddied by more striping close to them.
Here it is before I added any graphite.
Hmmm, it might look better smaller.
Yeah, I think I like it better that way.
Thanks for stopping by and a huge thank you if you leave a comment! It means a lot.
Until next time, God bless,

I like the composition of your tile!
Beautiful tile !
Striping is the ultimate Mac’n Cheese tangle. The shading you added makes your Striping shapes leap off the page. (Only a little hyperbole. 😉
