Zentangle Challenge

I recently discovered a "new" art form that I am having a lot of fun with! Basically it's the idea of using repetitive strokes to create a pattern, filling empty spaces with beauty. You can find out more about Zentangle here.

So in my quest for inspiration, I came across the diva's blog, where she challenges Zentanglers everywhere to break outside the box and think--and tangle--creatively. I took the recent challenge which was to create a Zentangle fit for a fairy. And since I couldn't sleep last night, I extended it to drawing a fairy and clothing her in tangles.

Do you see the fairy peeking out of her favorite gumball tree?

I transferred her over to some watercolor paper, and I'll be painting her soon...
