February 22 - A New Necklace!

I kind of fell off the radar for awhile.  Some angry tendons slowed down my drawing, but things are on the mend.  I hope to continue to post regularly again - not every day.  Tile A Day was fun while it lasted!

Here is my latest, a new necklace, and my answer to the Diva's weekly challenge - tangle pattern "Quandry."

February 8 "Tile•A•Day•Except•When•I•Can't" Zentangle


The consensus is that my tendons and I have been doing the tango. I am hopefully back, but will take this one day at a time. So here is my tile, "Tangling Tendons!" If you can't fight it.... :0)

February 1 (finally!)"Tile•A•Day" Zentangle



I am going to attribute yesterday's missing post to having had enough of January! Here is a recent Zendala illustrating an attempt at "fungees" that went astray.
