Zendala Dare!

So I decided to do something a little different today. I took a zendala challenge (#66 off of this particular website) I have been zentangling for the fun of it for a while, and I have always loved drawing and coloring mandalas. It only makes sense to combine the two.

For those of you who don't know, a ZENTANGLE is an abstract drawing that is supposed to have no proper up or down, left or right. You can look at it from any angle, and it's still a picture. That said, here are pictures of the one I did for this challenge.

 

Black and White, I pulled some inspiration from other people who had done the same challenge. The fish scale pattern is one of my all time favorites.

 

With color. Also you can see on the top of this pic - One of the Prismacolor markers I used (My favorite medium) and a Sharpie pen, and the corner of Allegiant, by Veronica Roth. New favorite series.(Divergent, Insurgent, Allegiant)

 

So I might do some more of these, or I might not, I like them, but I typically don't share my art with the general public, because I feel like it spills just a little too much of my soul.

Enjoy!

 

Oh! and here's the link to the website where YOU can find and print Zendala Dare templates and join in the fun!

Finally finished

Just kidding, this is only the beginning. I have one day (and a half) to relax and enjoy myself. Then it's off to the world of Fort Jackson, where shit gets real.

No more RSP until I come back. That will be gold phase, and then I will go to my home unit in Austin for drill. As far as that goes, I'm still trying to figure out how I'm going to work it out. You'll know once I know (promise).
