No End To The Tangles!


My ever-supportive sweetheart, Paul, loves the tangles I've done. He decided that I needed to create some on his motorcycle helmet! He gave me free reign, promising he would love anything I came up with. So.....ta-da! Here it is. He, as promised, loves it! (sigh of relief here) I wiped the area down with alcohol before I began. He bought a paint pen for me, but I felt it was too thick. I wound up using the ZIG Millenium pens that I use on paper. When I finished, I sprayed it with a couple of coats of clear acrylic sealer. (The pinstriping was already on there - he's got a creative streak himself!) He's already coming up with new places I need to tangle on.......

  2. Thank you so much for your comments! It was fun to do this little project, but I enjoyed it even more because it was his special request, and a little bit of me to go along with him when I can't.

    I notice now that I'm always looking at things and wondering how I can alter it, use it elsewhere, create something different with it, etc. I love it!
