Oh the Webs We Weave

Oh the Webs We Weave - Pais, Web, Laced, Cockles n' Mussels

This is a second portrait I did for the people’s portrait project. This is my profile filled with some of my favorite tangles. I have always had a thing for spiderwebs, I created many art pieces with spiderweb themes or dealing with spiders in general. I was just drawn toward them in college while doing projects. I also have a love of mushroom items too, from knick knacks (hopefully not too cheesey of ones tho) to art pieces to hang up. However, I tried to refrain from drawing too many mushrooms in college or incorporating them into my artwork since I didn't want my teachers to make certain assumptions about me. I really do just love how cute and quirky mushrooms are, especially asian designs & designs from the 50s & 60s with adorable little mushrooms.

Oh Sailor


Oh Sailor - Featherfall, Arckles, Net, Cockles n' Mussels, Floatfest, Knightsbridge, Pais

So this was the first attempt at a full size Zentangle. Although, I must confess - this one is 4x4 inches so this would be considered ZIA (Zentangled Inspired Art) at the time, it was the best paper I had in a nice small square size. I'm going to wrap this up for now - I've got to go make a good cucumber salad so it has time to sit for an hour before supper. *YUM*
