Creative Tuesdays - Pattern

The latest challenge from Creative Tuesdays is Pattern. As valentines day is coming up, and to make Mr T happy, I have drawn a heart, well a couple really.  The actual pattern is made up of circles (couldn't get away completely from my dots!) and curved lines.

This sort of detailed line work I find so very relaxing and do love doing it.  Looking at it on screen, I think the lower areas need to be a little darker to stop it being top heavy.

As I always tend to put my entries early on my blog, check out Mr T's blog on Tuesday to see other patterns.

Mandala

A while ago I did the following mandala and this week I was playing around on the computer and inverted it to see what it looked like.  I do like the effect of white on black, only wish I could draw like that, but I can never find a suitable liner pen.  Perhaps I will try with white ink and dip pen on black paper.

Which do you prefer?

Just playing around

Thought I would loosen up a little with some doodling, whilst still working on my Goddess painting.   I am following Traci Bautista's daily prompts at http://kollaj.typepad.com/kollaj/art-journaling-daily.html and this was as a result of one of her prompts.

I spashed acylic ink on watercolour paper, then made random circles and did whatever felt good. The ink dried in such a way on the third one, that it suggested a cat, albeit a strange one, so I left off the circles and drew in some lines.
