I wanted to leave some white space, but all of that pristine paper is begging to be tangled. So, what do you think, is it done?
As promised, here is a video I made showing how I draw pea~knuckle.
It's 11 minutes long, but I couldn't figure out where to cut it short. Sorry about that. I think you can tell why my Zentangle 101 classes run close to 3 hours!
HowtoDrawPeaKnuckly video on YouTube
It's my first how-to video, so please be gentle with me. I have a lot to learn about video-editing. And, for some reason, I kept saying "perpendicular" when I meant "parallel" so beware of that.Despite that, I hope this helps someone.
What a great job on Pea-Knuckle. I'm having trouble keeping my Pea-Knuckle lined up so I'm looking forward to viewing your video.
ReplyDeleteI have found that you don't really have to keep them lined up. Look at the top "row" of the bottom section above. They certainly didn't line up very well, but that's part of its charm.
DeleteThis reminds me of a spinning top. Nice work, now I need to go watch your video!
ReplyDeleteSpinning top, I like that. I kept thinking of the danger: radiation symbol :-)
DeleteCris, this is a fabulous example of how beautiful pea-knuckle can be. Amazing!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for all your help! Your video is great. I am definitely a visual learner,a couple of things I didn't really "get" in the tips became very clear with the video. I love the auras around the s's in your border, too.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome. I wasn't sure the tips were clear enough, but I had a VERY impatient child waiting for me... Glad the video helped.
DeleteThank you for the tutorial, great job on the video. I'm going to share it with my students.
ReplyDeleteI think it is stunning the way it is. If you add anything I would still leave lots of white space. I think it is done.

Very beautiful Zandala indeed! Looks like a wheel ready to move on !
ReplyDeleteIt's absolutely beautiful just as it is. I found if I pencil in rows of S's vertically, making sure the tops
ReplyDeletetouch the bottoms of the one above it is much easier to
lay out. I use a ruler to tick off even space between
the first row of S's horizontally. This took me a week
of experimenting, trying to get the patter correct. After I had the S's laid out like I wanted them, then the rest
was easy for me. Now to watch your video and learn some
easier tips!
