Today's Zentangle Progress

This is today's progress on my Zentangle image. I didn't realize how much I worked on it until I scanned the image.  There is still a lot that has to be done but it's getting there. 

So... we are told that in the Chicago area we are expected to get about 23" of snow and blizzard conditions, in the next couple of days (1/31/11 to 2/2/11). I don't usually believe what they say but it certainly seems like they may actually be correct this time.   Since my commute is close to 45 miles each way - I don't think I'm driving in that mess - and I also think we better get to the grocery store early tomorrow or there won't be anything for dinner if we can't go out.

Progress on my Zentangle

Progress on my Zentangle for my husband. I wasn't able to work much on my tangle this week but I did get some work accomplished on the bottom portion.  I added the Ixrous after I am the Diva posted her 6th challenge on her blog. I haven't added any of my images to her Challenges yet but I have been working on them. I even created a book to put them in so that I didn't have to keep looking for it I used my Cricut and cut out a title for the book. I haven't finished the cover but since I carry it with me I will work on it as I can.  The book is 8.5 x 6 with a heavy weight paper (it didn't say on the package what paper it is) but it's nice to draw on. The pen glides more than skips on the page.

2011, 01 JST Zentangle Project Progress

I started this image for my husband last night. I asked him hat he would like for his birthday and he requested that I make him something. Really?? Wow!  That really made my day. 

I started this in December - just the pencil lines. Last night I finally started working on the actual image. I probably spent about 3 hours on the drawing last night and I can't wait to get back to it when I get home tonight. This work stuff can really get in the way LOL...  

This is the Initial Box - he asked for something with both our initials in the main "box"

I didn't want to stop last night I was on a roll.
