Starry-Eyed Surprise - Challenge Week #4

If you're following the weekly Zentangle© challenge, here is my offering for this week.  There will also be a tangle swap at my local art supply store this coming Saturday.  The theme is 1-1-11.  Ten people have told the swap facilitator they will attend, so we are to make 10 tangles - whew!!  I only have five finished, all different, and am not sure I'm going to make any more.  Would it be cheating to photocopy the five I have, cut them out and paste them onto cardstock?  Probably... ;~(  Since New Year's Day is two weeks past, the theme isn't very inspiring to me, either - such is life.....

  1. You sound very honest! I like your rainbow background behind your stars! Perhaps for a bit of new year inspiration choose some tangles that start with J - for January! Just a thought!

  2. Hi there! I have been fascinated by Zentangles for a while now but have yet to give it a try. A little afraid it will be addictive and too relaxing for me! This is lovely! I particularly like the shading that you've added - it gives such depth!

    I had a wonderful visit to your yummy blog. I find myself very drawn to your unmade bed - love those red sheets! It looks so cozy and I guess I'm sleepy after a long day.

    Thank you so much for your recent visit. I loved the quote you left there. I can apply it to my life - I've had years answer the questions of past ones more than once. Well, I hope the new year brings your every wish true to you!

  7. Thanks for all these encouraging comments!!! Since I am a rank amateur to the task of tangling and do it only in odd moments as a sideline to other pursuits, it is with some amazement that I realize these tangles are drawing more comments than other posts on my blog. Is there a message in this?
