More Creative Update

I am trying to give more frequent updates.. but as you can see - still not so chatty.....perhaps soon....

Zentangled Postcards:



And a zentangled 3.5" square:


A mixed media postcard:


A couple of Mixed Media Paintings I did:

I wanted to explain this first painting.. my paternal grandparents and I used to spend a lot of time together... one of our monthly visits was to bring flowers to their parents graves and that of my dad's sister that passed away in a car accident.  My grandpa being a bit of a jokester would ask me if when he passed away would I bring my crying chair and cry over him being gone.. I never forgot that.. and I decided to put it in a painting - something I have been meaning to do for a while.


I did this one after seeing some painting videos by Mystele... I LOVE her style, and she really is a great teacher :-)


I also started a new altered book for a Round Robin that will be starting up soon:

Front Cover

Back Cover:

Inside Cover (sign in page) and yes - my above mixed media painting (that was done on a cardboard box by the way) did end up in this book:


Until Next time, much love and God bless!!

I am enjoying your Zentangles. I bought 3 of the books, a sketchpad, and markers/pens.
