This week the Diva’s challenge is to make a string out of circles. I had a whole evening to myself yesterday which meant I had a few hours for nothing but this challenge. I used the bottom of a glass and drew around it a few times then filled the spaces which that left me with. I enjoy filling spaces, it’s leaving spaces blank which always challenges me.
I particularly enjoyed spending time on the shading which makes such a difference, but I forgot to take ‘before’ and ‘after’ shots which was something I promised myself I would do last week after seeing others who had done just that. Note to self: next week remember!!
Now it’s off to the dentist then I’ll be sitting down with a cup of tea and having a look at how everyone else has handled circle strings.

Love this one Linda. Inspiring me to do some on such a nasty day. Can’t think of a better way to fill the day.

Fully agree, it’s so bad I may well be doing two challenge tangles for the first time 🙂
Your scaling is so effective, you hardly need the shading. I’m going green!
Thank you. I’m sure the shading gives it more depth but must do a before and after shot so that I can see the difference x
Stunning x
Thanks Sam x
I absolutely LOVE that gear in the bottom right side. I am drawn to tangles that go in and out of the paper and also Steampunk, and that has both. Beautiful work.
Thank you Jean. You’ve given me some inspiration to do a second one with circles……. watch this space 🙂
Hope the visit at the dentist was not to bad. You evening alone was not wasted as you made this beautiful tile!
Thanks Annemarie (and dentist visit ok 🙂 )
That’s a really beautiful tile. Your strokes and lines look like printed. Great!!!
Thank you x
Nice transitions of your tangles. I like filling spaces also. Took me a while to get comfortable with leaving spaces. I still have to remind myself about it.
Thanks Donald x
Very striking tile – and you keep your lines so even and parallel – well done!
Also one of my problems though, tidiness!!!
Beautiful work, Linda. It is so precise that it looks like an engraving. Wonderful.
Thank you for the lovely comment x
great selection of tangles. I like to take lots of photos as they do help when I question the impact of various decisions and checking whether the shading makes a difference is definitely one of them.
I remembered this week 🙂
