The Diva's Challange (see link button to the right) this week really sparked something for me - I can't remember when I sat down and completed a tile in one sitting. Hope you enjoy it! Oh yeah, and about those priorities - check back often; I may have some exciting news to share very soon!</span><br />

I have a blog. That means I'm supposed to post to it periodically. Thanks to those of you have checked back occasionally - I'll try to be better about posting!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Lately, I've rediscovered how much I like tangling on the original 3 1/2 X 3 1/2 inch Zentangle tiles. This happened when I started placing Random Acts of Zentnagle (RAZ's) in random places. Thanks to Donna Hornsby's creation of a RAZ Facebook page, I, along with several other Zentangle enthusiasts, have been (hopefully) surprising and entertaining people with our tiles. In the spirit of Random Acts of Art movements, we've been leaving tiles anonymously in places we've been and only identify them as a "random act of Zentangle to be found, enjoyed, kept, or left for someone else to find." I'm fascinated by the mystery of both the person who finds it and intrigued by what they must think of the person who left. We'll probably never meet each other and can have fun imagining who we each must be. Here are a couple of my tiles and a picture of where I left them. Wonder where they ended up???

This summer has really flown by! I've really been trying to finish some of the Dares and Challenges that I've started over the last few weeks. I love reading about each new Challenge and get very exciting to try each idea - only to get distracted/side-tracked/too busy to actually finish it at all, much less post it in time. Oh well, here's what I've gotten back to so far...</span><br />

becoming a CZT. It only took that weekend for me to get hooked on this whole Zentangle thing and I was
also lucky enough to find a new friend, too. So it seems very appropriate that the idea for our follow-up
to the Floatfest Re-Treat would sprout in the car ride home from Dayton, Ohio, where we took a beading class
from Carole at her new store, The Bead Stash.</span><br />
<span style="color: black; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: black; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">We talked a lot about how much we enjoyed Floatfest and what made it so special. We soon came to
the conclusion that we would want to emphasize "the teacher not the teaching" at our retreat. Thus, </span><b style="color: black; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">CZT
Hideaway 2013</b><span style="color: black; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> was launched.
Yes, we'll have classes and planned activities, but mostly we'll be learning from each other through examples and informal
demonstrations. In the spirit of what Carole did at Floatfest, we want to focus on the relaxation and
rejuvenating aspects of Zentangle.</span><br />
<span style="color: black; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br />So many of the CZT events we see try to put so many classes, etc.
into the least amount of time that they seem very busy and almost overwhelming. We want our retreat (and we
use this term purposefully) to be about rediscovering some of the basic tenets of Zentangle - "being in the
moment"...'finding our inner creativity"..."one stroke at a time".</span><br />
<span style="color: black; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br />So many of us have become so focused on scheduling classes and building our business; we want our
participants to come focus on themselves in order to re-energize and renew the excitement we felt when we experienced our CZT training. Just as we encourage using the finest materials to create our Zentagles, our students (and
our Zentangles!) deserve the finest teachers/creators - we must take care of ourselves!</span><br />

I know they are there, but the font color of the comments is the same color as the background and nobody has been able to tell me how to change the font color. The good news is that if you are interested in reading the comments, you can see them by just placing your cursor at the beginning of the comments and highlight them by dragging your mouse over them. Voila! They really do show up!

First of all, Erin Koetz Olsen's template inspired all sorts of ideas and the additional challenge of the "don'ts" made it even more fun. Normally, I use several patterns in a Zendala, so my first "don't" was to make it a monotangle. And what better pattern to use than Erin's own pattern, Socc. But of course, I couldn't do it all as a monotangle, so I threw in just a little bit of Auraknot as my second "don't." My final "don't" is more of just indecision on my part. Usually I either shade it all or none of it. In this case, I took Solomon's lead and only shaded have of it. That brings up another "don't" - while it's divided in half, it's not divided symmetrically. Thanks for pushing me out of my usual comfort zones, Erin. I always love your Zendala Dares and this time, I especially "don't!"</span></div><br/>

When she showed our CZT class this pattern, I loved how she started with what looked like Carole Ohl's pattern "Puf" but made it completely different. More than just a tanglation, the steps and feel of Socc are very different, but just as satisfying. You can see below that I obsessed just a little bit with this Challenge this week!</span></div>>div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify:"><br />

The other day, as I was looking at some of the tiles posted by other CZT's, I wondered what I could do with using a bullseye as my string. I starting filling in the rings with a combination of new tangle patterns and old favorites, with no real plan or preconcieved ideas. Where have we heard that before? When I ran out of ideas, I stopped and picked it up another time. It was so relaxing, so pleasing, so satisfying to return "home" to the very essence of Rick and Maria's Zentangle artform.</span></div>>div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify:"><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: black; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">This week, I decided to take the Zendala Dare. Erin Koetz Olson, a fellow ZCT7 from California, has been posting a weekly challenge on her blog, The Bright Owl, on which she shows a different Zendala string. Her string for Dare #25 caught my eye, so this week I decided to try it. What fun! Thanks, Erin!!</span></div>

I'm five Diva Challenges behind! Where did the end of September go and is it already October?? In my attempt to get caught up, I combined the last two challenges, #89 "Sankegg" and #90 "String Theory v. XIII". (See the Diva Challenge link button at right) This was really fun for me, combining an old favorite, Baton, with a brand new pattern, Santegg, from Maria Vennekens and using Linda Farmer's TanglePatterns String 001 to hold it all together. Sankegg lends itself so well to an Escher-like treatment. Thanks Maria, Linda, and Laura!</span></div>>div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify"><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: black; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I missed the Diva's deadline last week, but finished it anyway. Something about this lazy holiday morning that inspired me to just wander around my "Blindsided String" that was last week's Diva Challenge (see link button at right). Anyone who has experienced Zentangle knows what I'm talking about.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: black; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I went to the Diva's Challenge site (see link button at right) earlier this week to find that she was taking what I know was a well-deserved vacation break, so I decided to come up with my own Challenge. While wandering around in Linda Farmer's Tangle Patterns site, I did a search for Laura Harm's patterns and there I found my Challenge. Actually, it is a Challenge that Linda Farmer came up with after seeing the Diva's first four Challenges; Linda challenged us to Zentangle our names by using patterns beginning with each letter of our name. In true Diva fashion, I added a little extra twist by challenging myself to only use patterns I'd never used before. Below is my name using the following patterns:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">L</span></b>ooplopp, <b><span style="font-size: large;">E</span></b>choism, <b><span style="font-size: large;">S</span></b>lainte, <b><span style="font-size: large;">L</span></b>otsadots, <b><span style="font-size: large;">E</span></b>ye-wa, and <b><span style="font-size: large;">Y</span></b>incut </span></div>

The Diva asked us to create a Duo Tangle tile using only the patterns Mooka and Assunta. While I ended up keeping the two fairly separated, they created a nice flow around the tile. One nice "surprise" was how the auras in the negative space created a very Puf-like feel to the Assunta - totally by accident. I love when that happens!</span></div>>div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify:"><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: black; font-family: Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I was recently invited to display some of my tiles and ZIA (Zentangle Inspired Art) pieces as part of Muncie's First Thursday Art Walk next month. I was thrilled at the prospect, but a little intimidated when the owner asked if I could do some larger pieces. Other than framing a completed 9-tile Ensemble, the largest piece I've done is a 10" X 10" Zendala. (Unless you count the 18" x 18" "tiles" on demo pads in class. Actually, I was trying to figure out how I could make some of those class "tiles" work, but can't get past the look of the newsprint!) I finally decided that I would try to do larger Ensemble-like tiles. After finding a frame shape and size that interested me, I set to work on three 11" X 11" Strathmore bristol vellum squares. I put them together to draw a large string through all three, then focused on each piece separately. I did put two squares back together if I wanted to tangle over the edges from one square to the next, but for the most part, I just let myself approach each square as if it were my usual tile. What started out as a real challenge ended up being a really fun project. The framed size is 36" X 11 1/2". Please forgive the bad pictures - my scanner bed is only 8 1/2" X 11".</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: black; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">What is it about Rick and Maria's latest tangle pattern, "Auraknot", that has inspired such a burst of of creativity and Tangle-ation? Part of it may be the fun and inventive way they chose to introduce it to us - by showing lots of examples of it without giving us the steps and then challenging us to figure them out with just a couple of hints. Part of it may have been the additional challenge of having us come up with the name. Nope, it is definitely the tangle itself that lends itself to so much investigation, exploration, and (dare I say it?) borderline obsession! Personally, I can't remember being this fascinated by a new pattern since I discovered Rick's Paradox. In the interest of space, I'm only going to post one Auraknot ZIA (with just a dash of Betweed) at this time for my entry in this week's Diva Challenge (see the link button at right). But be warned, you'll be seeing lots of Auraknot in this blog from now on - this one is destined to be a Zentangle classic!</span></div>

She came up with a beautiful pattern called Fiore di Pietro (Peter's Flower). She shared the steps for this lovely pattern and then invited her fellow CZT's (and others) to use this pattern to create tiles that she wanted to collect as part of a memorial she was compiling as a surprise for her family. I thought this was such a special gesture and found that this 6" x 6" ZIA pretty much drew itself - I just let it flow. I'm very happy that The Diva chose this pattern for this week's challenge (see link button at right) so I can share my take on Rho's tangle. I hope that all this week's participants will think of Rho's family as they honor her brother-in-law.</span></div>>div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify:"><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: black; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Before heading off to Chicago for a fun weekend with some special friends, I'm posting 3 solutions to this week's Diva Challenge #74 (see link button at right), another of her String Theory series. This Challenge really fascinated me - I found myself drawing several strings in different formats on different papers all week long. Here are the ones I ended up liking the best - interesting that all ended up on 3 1/2" x 3 1/2" inch tiles.<br />
<br />
The Diva quotes Wikipedia's definition of eccentric (as opposed to concentric) circles as "an eccentric or elliptical orbit having a different center." For some reason, this strikes me not only as a great Diva Challenge (is there any other kind?) but also as a potential theme for this weekend!</span></div>
