Challenges April square one

I really enjoied the Square One challenges of this month.

Week one: Nipa
Trying out some dewdrops

Week two: Fanz
My first renaissance tile

Week three: Jetties
First I did Jetties and meringue
And it inspired me to another Jetties with only circels: Cirquital, Crescent Moon, Betweed, Fat man

Week four: Diva dance

I combined Diva dance with barberpole and BB and added some black. And I got some very nice reactions on this one !

Earth Day

We don't have an Earth Day in Belgium and I've never heard of it before, but nevertheless I participate to the Diva Challenge this week (challenge #214). So, the challenge is to make a tile in the theme of Earth Day.

I made an open earth where everything is possible, were unexpected things happen, where there is a lot of variaton in the different parts of it and a bit shadow for comfort when it's necessary. I hope you like it !

Oostende

My husband and I went for a little trip of two days to Oostende (seaside Belgium).  We wanted to see the  exhibition 'The Sea', composed by Jan Hoet.  There was an exhibition in the museum 'The Sea' plus a walk in Oostende with 11 places where you could see an artwork that had a connection with the sea.  We enjoied it a lot, especially because we had marvelous weather these 2 days.  We also visited The Atlantic Wall in Raversyde, with some remains of WWI and WWII.

Here a little zentangle I made during this trip, with the see and the tilling you see everywhere on the Belgian seawall.  I used Fanz, Agua, Frillee, Nipa, Printemps and Bubbles. I made it while I was looking at the sea from the terras of our splendid hotel, sitting in the sunshine. And we could also look to a beatiful sunset in the evening.

Renaissance Fanz

For the challenge #212 posted on the website I am the Diva CZT, I tried some renaissance tile.  I really like this style when I see some other examples on the internet.  So, this is my first one and I have to practice it a bit further.  I used some card stock we had ad home, and made some 3,5" cards of it.  May be the colour of the paper is a bit to dark, but the result is still quite nice.

The challenge of this week is to use Fanz, an UMT of Susan Goetter.  It's a nice pattern to fill in.  I learned it when I started with zentangle, but  never used it in a tile until now.  You can see also Flux, the challenge #211 of last week and Roxi.
