Dreamcatcher

The first week of every month @TheDiva is Use My Tangle Week and this week its DreamCatcher by Daniel Lamothe. Its a beautiful new tangle for me with lots of possibilities but.... yes but this week is one of those crazy week where nothing is going as planned and I haven't got around playing much with it.
Here's my take on it...simple...I so wanted to color it but crazy week....Have a great weekend!

Straight Jacket

Today's challenge at the Diva's is quite challenging. Its to create a tile using only straight lines tangles. This tile took all my focus and had to very consciously keep the muscle memory at bay though they did try to sneak up in some places. "Breathe in, breathe out and focus"...here's my take.
Thank you for all the lovely comments and encouragement on my last post.
Hope you guys have a fantastic week ahead.
<3


 

first post for 2016!!

What!!Really??
Where has the time gone....hmmm...should I blame it on sheer laziness to upload the things I have created or blame it on my fingers for not allowing the thoughts in my mind to be expressed and thus  getting frustrated irritated or blame it on procrastinating. I have been pushing this way too long...so what brought the change...


And I realize it doesn't matter- a line or two or a whole page, weekly, daily, ...just put it out there...so here's the first of 2016 with Diva's #285 challenge which I like to call "Exhale"



Thanks for stopping by...have a great week...

Hello Bloggy Friend's,

Thank you for all the lovely comments on my art journal page...happy, happy, happy :)

How are you all doing in your little corner of the world? Is the weather treating you well?
Am from Mumbai, India and the weather here is crazy. It's HOT in the morning, Cool breezy by noon and HOT again in the evening and COOLER by night. Just can't seem to make up its mind :)

After I had finished my Starry night page, I jumped into page two with great enthusiasm, which hit a roadblock soon. I was using distress ink and gelato's over gesso which would not just dry. I tried putting matt gel to seal it, but dint help. Then after heat drying for almost two days the distress ink finally dried. But then was not too happy as the sunflower was getting lost in the yellow. So changed the background to blue - sunflower was looking too lonely and I was getting too frustrated :(

the journey...

Anyway, I was not going to give up- so after layering and correcting I finally finished page two with John Denver's sunshine on my shoulders...Will revisit this page again soon...

The Finale

The Chinese are celebrating their New Year Xin Nian Kuai Le ...and according to Chinese astrology, each Chinese New Year is associated with an animal sign, occurring in a 12-year cycle. This is the year of the Goat and at the Diva's we are celebrating it too incorporating the symbol of goat in the tile. Here's my take on it.

Wishing Ming and Manish a very Happy New Year.

Mookatine and a beginning of a journey...

Hello lovely bloggy friends... this weeks challenge at Diva's is to create a tile using Love as a theme... and here's my take. A mooka entwined :) 

Since a very long long long time I have been wanting to create an art journal and in December I finally started one. I decided to use songs which I enjoy listening to as a start up and here's the first one. The journey was difficult. It took me almost a week to get to this, but I had made up my mind that like Zentangle there's no mistake and I just kept on going and this is the result. 

...suggestion, criticism, feedback most welcome. Thank you and have an amazing week ahead :) 

Betweed crazy

Betweed is one of my all time favourite tangle. I have to consciously restrain myself not to use it in all the tiles, so when I saw this weeks challenge at Divas I was yipeeeee!!(jiggly wiggly dance)  Yeah!! Quickly pulled out my tile and here's what I created. Am sure by the end of this week I am going to end up creating lots more!! Happy Betweed-ing :)

Thank you for all the lovely comments on my previous post. Have a great week!

Divas #162

This weeks challenge at Divas is to use your initials as a string. I just about made it after months of MIA. Hope the coming week is full of happiness n sunshine 

Cheers

Challenge # 139

Crazy week, Thnx Jane Eileen for the tangle "8s Parte Dos" and Laura for the challenges!! A tangle which if you keep turning your tile makes it easier to keep track


My take ....




Have a great weekend!!
