Pimped book covers

September is already half way, and the children began at school again.  The daily routine is on again.  September is also the month of the new school stuff, books and covers.  My eldest daughter loves to pimp her books and covers.  She has always so much inspiration.

You can see some nice examples here, they are alle zentangle inspired. And I also zentangled one of her covers - the purple one.  I tried to make it different from hers, by using flowery - and round patterns.

She is especially fond of elephants, because this is her "totem" (special name) in the scouts group.

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.

Spiral

The challenge posted on the Diva website this week (challenge #210) is to use a spiral this week.  Oh, I love that, so thank you Laura for this challenge.  I used already often a spiral in my tiles.  You can find them all on my blog.

This week, I made a spiral with the patterns Aquafleur, Purk, Frillee and Squid.  And oh yes, in the corners Tipple with some spirals in it.
