I tend to make my tangles really busy. Sometimes I have to stop myself from tangling until my tile is more black than white, because all those little nooks and crannies are just so FUN to fill in! Every now and then, though, it’s refreshing to change it up (“Put the pen down and back away slowly!”) and leave some negative (white) space for the eye to rest.
>Shift your focus to the negative space, so the white part of your tile is the focus of your tangle.
Ponder the possibilities… what will your string be?

Here's my challenge tile. I chose not to have a recognizable negative space...just something more like a window to another layer. I like negative space in art, but I have a hard time when I'm tangling! I just had to add jax...couldn't help myself. (See Tile #10 for my "B" tile.)

Very lovely tile with great choice of tangles!

DeleteStunning! One of those "wish I had thought of that" moments!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
Deletevery cool. Love how you subtly put a little something into the negative space. Made it so it wasn't quite so empty.
