Welcome to Barb's Daily Creations! I have lofty ambitions - I want to post a new drawing or painting every day. The purpose of this, of course is to stay creative and on task artistically even when I may not feel the muses calling, prodding and pushing. I hope that you enjoy my humble efforts, because, ultimately, that is the purpose of creating art - to enrich lives - mine and yours. Thanks for visiting!
Write it on your heart that every day is the best day of the year.

I am the Diva Challenge 183: X-Did
This is my answer to the X-Did challenge for The Diva's Challenge, #183. It is 6" x 6" and is done on good white drawing paper. I used Micron-Pigma pens and I shaded with pastels and Prismacolor colored pencils.
This is an awesome Tile, Barbara. Love how you used X-Did as a single element and again as a strip repeating element. Perfect execution of the patterns. Your color shading is amazing. Beautiful work, I love it.
Thank you so much, David! I found this tangle to be sort of daunting and difficult to use in a tangle - thus the single element first and the rest came along later. I appreciate your comments - they are always so encouraging!
Agree wholeheartedly with David's comments. Like the colors. Saw your elephants on the post before. They are fantastic. I would never attempt something like that.
Barb, even though the tangle was daunting you did a most fabulous job with it!!! I just love your tile!!! Everything about it, looks like you were having a good time!! Your art work is just amazing!! Such talent!!!! Thank you for giving 'X-DID' a try!! :0) Have great weekend! Annette Share humanity
Crazy different. I like how you used the tangle as the string and then just worked in elements. Love the use of color. I might have to get some of those pens! (You're not helping my budget)
