Diva Challenge #214 - Amanda Day/Earth Day (Round 4!)

What fun! This is my first time participating in an Amanda Day Diva Challenge. Credit for drawing the continents goes to my mom, since I can't "actually" draw worth a flip. Ah well, tangling's good enough for me! ^_^

Tangles used: (Starting at the top and going clockwise) Growth, Flux, Ansu, Opus, Aura-Leah, Pokeroot, Fescu, Maddie 2, Dyon, Ovy, Antidots, Pokeleaf, Zinger, Lazy Eights, Kelp, Garlic Cloves, Bunzo

Also - I'm going to try to keep up my tangle journal (though I might just switch to making sure I tangle every single day, the lines are pretty distracting and the paper isn't fun at all to draw on), but I'm probably not going to post what I do, since the results are almost always rushed and mediocre, and I'm really lazy and don't like taking a bunch of photos of work I'm not satisfied with. Oh well.

Also-make sure to check out my Tangleation Vocation Challenge here! Enjoy and be inspired! ^_^

    Daniel, I think you're probably going to win the award for using the most tangles in one challenge. Nice job. And kudos to your Mom for the continents. Brilliant.

    Fantastic. It's almost woven and wreath like in a beautiful way. Very pretty! Sarah.

    Hi Daniel. I really like your wreathe idea. All the different tangles remind me of all the different nations on the earth. It's very poetic! I am always eager to see your responses to the diva's challenges. Jill

    Lovely tile. I like the tangles encircling the earth, kind of protective.

    What a pretty and symbolic tile you have produced. I like the way you used patterns that symbolised all the things that grow on the earth and they are all beautifully drawn.

    Very symbolic of the good in the world, a real alphabet soup of tangles. Lovely and your mom deserves some props, too! Have a brilliant day, c

    I would never say you can't draw, your tangles are lovely and your concept was inspired! Besides, I've been looking around and I think you're quite talented indeed, keep up the good work!

    I've added your challenge to my list of artistic challenges on my own blog and I believe I'll be entering next week.
