Of course we had to try it and since we didn't have her specific brand of inks we used what we had (imagine)! We used twinkling H2Os.
Our favorite color was called Love Struck which is a beautiful deep shade of red. We found that the best way to apply the paint was with a very wet round paint brush so that you get big strokes of color. The package is shown below!
The product may be sold under a different name now. Below is my finished piece. I had to emulate Jo-Ellen's artwork because it is stunning!!
Here's another work in process but I realized I didn't leave enough large areas of white to tangle. Still looks cool, but a different approach.
The artwork below was what inspired my piece. Jo-Ellen's is below and you can tell by her quality tangling that she is a Certified Zentangle Teacher CZT! Her tangles are perfection.
So I'm including other pieces she made. Jo-Ellen used Microns in various colors, that really work with her H2Os color choices.
So below is the first step, broad brushstrokes of color.
Then you outline the white areas and get to tangling them. If you have no idea what I'm talking about when I refer to tangling then look up Zentangle and learn more. It's a meditative art form that encourages mindfulness and is so relaxing.
After you outline the white areas you tangle a pattern in each white space. If it's a small area you can just color it in. I used black Micron markers for mine.
So here it is, Jo-Ellen saw a dragon that then morphed into a camel in her blue ink splashes and she drew him in! So, fun! Love that little guy!
Try this out for yourself, it's very addictive!
