ZENDALA DARE # 76 - No.2

I have a really hard time drawing in black & white.  Not because I find it difficult, but because I just LOVE COLOR SO SO SO SO MUCH!  That being said, b&w can be much more striking than color in many cases.  I'm just not so sure this is one of them...

This go 'round was tedious.  & don't you hate it when you are almost done with something & you mess up!  Take a look, it's not hard, the boo-boo's just jump right out at you. 

Anyhow, I wanted to do a zendala in just grayscale... so that's what I did... & here it is.
tangles used: bilt, hibred, bandola, dl sunray, pomegranate

Thanks to the wonders of technology (specifically a high resolution scan,) I plan on taking a short-cut & printing out a version of this with no shading so I can go back & color it.  I figure I'll update this when I'm done with some vibrant versions of this zendala.

      thanks! I was a little concerned about it's fussiness/busyness.

    I disagree, this is striking. I like the contrast you created and like the different tangles that you used. the shading adds a nice dimension.
