Tangled Koi Pond

The recent class at Icarus Art Studio featured a “Tangled Koi Pond”. Using a white Apprentice tile and black Micro Perm 03 pen (for the bolder black lines), the following patterns were used to create the pond: Lilium/Dani DePalma-Mabanta, CZT; Lily Pads/Margaret Bremner, CZT; Ubud/Pam Signorelli, CZT; Popsicles (variation of)/Michelle Beauchamp, CZT; Damsel Leaf/Annette Rumpler, CZT; Flux and Fescu/Zentangle. These are all fun patterns to draw and … who knew … you can create a “fish” using four Flux shapes! There was the option of adding just simple orange to the koi fish with graphite shading, or full on color with pastel chalk pencils.
