I have been trying to perfect my shading and I like how this piece turned out. There is also a new pattern I tried from Sandra that I'm not sure I got exactly right. Sometimes my eyes see something different from my hand. Or maybe the electron thingys that go from my eyes to my hand are just tired. Even I get surprised when I see how things turn out sometimes. I have tangles that I haven't shaded yet, but I almost feel like the shading finishes the piece. It gives it the depth that you don't see without the shading - like it's calling out to be finished. I got some new oil pastels so I've been playing around with those. I really love how some people color theirs' and how great they look but I won't post anything until I perfect it a little more. I'm such a perfectionist!! That's such a silly thing to say when you're doing tangles because there is no structure to it so how can anyone be a perfectionist when doing them???? I guess sometimes I forget about the Zen part!! He!He!! Have a fabulous day and draw something that makes you smile!!
Try to relax and have a little fun - now breathe.... don't be so hard on yourself. Half the fun is posting something you've made just to see what people write back - often they are a LOT kinder to us than we are to ourself! Just enjoy the creation and post without judgement; remember - "anything is possible, one stroke at a time"!
