Karen Anne, is going to be excellent at this challenge! Good luck everyone! Have fun ;o)
I am having fun with it. I am not a zentangler but I do doodle! And I like adding watercolor washes to the final black and white drawing. I love color! Doing one more now. A mermaid.
Thanks for reminding me about the challenge Stacy! I do like doing "Under the Sea" pieces.
Don't have to be a zentangler for the ACEO Challenge, Penny ... just love creating ACEOs, which you do!
Thanks Stacy and Penny for reminding me about the ACEO Challenge! I almost forgot! You are right Stacy, this is right up my alley! LOL!
Do the entries HAVE to include zentangle or is this just a "twist" you'd like to see? Some people are hesitant about zentangles and might not enter if this a "Must". Just wondering ....
Hi Karen,
They should have some aspect of zentangle, zendoodle, or zendala... basically any patterns in the ACEO... doesn't have to be super fancy or exact!
Ok I just fixed Barbara's link, for some reason it wasn't showing a thumbnail!
Beautiful art everyone!
Love all the aceo's everyone!!!
Pam, please read the paragraph above my aceo ;o) LOL! I hope you're not being affected by the floods! Take Care ;o)
Thanks for fixing the link Pam!
LOL Stacy, oops, fixed it... good eyes!
Thank you, our city is affected, we are taking on a ton of water - the river will crest tomorrow morning. But I am located on up high in the city, I am not going anywhere near the flood. The next few days will be hard, but we will recover. 10,000 people have been evacuated in the affected areas, so we are very fortunate to be on higher ground.
Your welcome Barbara!
I am so sorry Pam!!! Please take care!!!
Thanks for the fix my friend ;o)
Hugs ;o)
Thank you Stacy, we'll be ok and the city will recover... your welcome!
Awesome prizes!
Talk about terrific entries and generous prizes! It is going to be very difficult to choose on this challenge!
Wonderful prizes! Wow - great entries, too! It was really hard to pick one - nice job everyone!
