So far it's been a rainy time in Florida the past few days. We certainly need the rain to nourish trees, grass and shrubbery, but the downpour just awhile ago was nearly scary, and I love rough weather! Took a couple of photos of wind and rain from my porch.

Since this sure wasn't an afternoon to be outside, I decided to play with the monthly challenge from the Sarasota Surface Design Guild. We were given a photo copy of the outline of a hand and no further instructions. I've been wanting to trace my own hand and create a piece of ZIA (Zentangle Inspired Art). Thinking about the henna decorations on bridal hands set me on this path with my trusty sepia-toned Sakura micron pen....... I took several different photos in different light, with and without flash. These two photos seem to show detail the best. The name of the piece is "Eye-Hand Coordination"

Diggin' it! I love those scary tropical downpours almost as much as I love your ZIA - well done!
ReplyDeleteAhhh... wish I could have stayed in and tangled. I had to drive to work in that rain! Love your 'Eye-hand Coordinations's.
ReplyDeleteThis is awesoome! Maybe because it's a hand it gives that henna vibe. Love the designs in there!
ReplyDeleteI hope everything is going well in your neck of the woods. That was some scary weather you had yesterday. My prayers and good thoughts are sent your way. Hang in there, friend.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea! Love what you've done with the hand, very effective.
ReplyDeleteI hope the sun has come out again for you.
