Hello From Little Sammy
Hello to all my wonderful friends! I hope the beginning of you week is going along smoothly and the weekend will soon be in sight! I want to share my card I created yesterday. I decided to try my hand at sketching my own design... Don't laugh!
Copics Used:
E35, E33, E31 and E000. I added a little E37 to give more depth to the shadow areas.
Eyes: C10 and Copic Opaque White Ink
I added some Zentangle to the image with my Copic Gray Multiliner 0.3mm. I am not pleased with the whiskers.... Oh well.... I should have left well enough alone! I am new at drawing! I shall improve!:D
So, what is Zentangle? It is a way of repeating patterns to create beautiful images. It has been said to be relaxing.... I have never been much of "doodler" but let's see how it goes! It was a creative technique created by Maria Thomas and Rick Roberts The history can be found HERE. Classes are given on this and I will be first in line if they give any in my neck of the woods! This is a great site for - Zentangle
ZenTangle is:
- Repetitive patterns
- Relaxing
- Simple and meditative
- Fun (Now that's right up my alley!)
- Start without a preconceived idea of a final result
- Not expensive (I like that..... more money for Copics!)
- Timeless
- Intuitive
I think he turned out kinda cute! I like the little twinkle in his eyes and he looks like he is just the friendliest little guy!
I am linking my card with with following challenges:

Marie, I think you did a fabulous on your drawing. The coloring came out terrific (I like his wiskers). I could not even attempt to draw something, which I find so very sad because my Dad was a wonderful artist, cartoonist and sculptor. But we all have our brand of "talent". I love the embossed folder you paired with Sammy. just perfect and your AWWW moment of the day, - well I'm still smiling, just precious.
ReplyDeleteSo, I am thinking that you might be the next new stamp designer. Sammy is adorable and a refreshing change from new teddy bears, kittens, frogs, dinosaurs. You go girl!
ReplyDeleteha ha ha ha!!!! Oh Marie I love your bunnie... He makes me laugh he is so sweet! I love what you did in creating your little Sammy she is just a cutie pie. You did great drawing her better then I would do. Love the Zentangel. One of these days I will do one I still have my dog I did. I love how you colored Sammy and added your doodles softly. Wonderful job my friend. So much looking forward in seeing you. We will have a blast.
