This afternoon, I spent a lovely hour or so exploring variations of a simple pattern cell, or fragment in Zentangle terminology. I picked one of the most basic ones there is and just tried variations to see where it let me. In about 20 minutes, I’c come up with 12 variations.
I then chose one of the variations to turn into a grid pattern. I had a very pleasant surprise as the pattern started to build up and star shapes started to appear!
The Zentangle pattern Flux and a simple daisy motif complete the design. I did start this drawing off with the fluffy flux foliage!
The next thing to do is to add colour and/or shade with highlights. But not today. I actually feel I need to eat something. So, that’s what I’m going to do when I’ve finished all my social media posts.
Art is the Adventure 
Hello Angela,
Just gorgeous!!!! What can I say, I love this. It’s how I work as well, whether it’s drawing or designing origami models: trying to find as many variations as possible. I discovered that a series can end up in a totally a new design! That is my creative process.
Thank you ever so much for sharing your artwork and thoughts about the process and your personal life.
All the best!!
