5/22/20 Shattuck Tangle



Shattuck

            Tangle Authors: Rick Roberts and Maria Thomas


Materials needed for this lesson: Pencil and piece of paper (I divided a sheet of 8.5 x 11 inch piece of plain white paper into fourths by folding it in half lengthwise and then folding it in half again width-wise. I drew my tangle on one-fourth of the paper.)

Shading Tools
         Shading is NOT necessary, but I think it adds dimension and character to my art.  
     I use a tortillon for shading. I buy a package of them at my local arts and crafts store. Tortillons come in different sizes. I like the smaller ones. When the "tip" of the tortillon gets dull, I "sharpen" it on a piece of course sandpaper.
     The instruction videos below show you how to shade straight-line and curved-line Shattuck.

This work of art was created by Terri. She drew "ribbons" of Shattuck. If you look carefully, you can see that on one side of each 'ribbon' she drew and shaded Straight-Line Shattuck, and on the other side, she drew and shaded Curved-Line Shattuck! You can also see her signature "chop," TM.


This is another work of art by Terri. She started with a 3.5 inch square black Zentangle tile. On the tile, Terri used a white gel pen to draw a variation of Curved-Line Shattuck. Between the columns of Shattuck, she drew Fescue. Notice how Terri used a regular pencil to shade her art. Look at the creative way she embellished the top of each column! Note her signature, or chop, "TM" beneath her drawing.

Here, Ellen drew 'ribbons' of variations of Shattuck. The second ribbon from the right took its inspiration from the Spearator tangle. Each "ribbon" ends in the Msst tangle.


This is the completed work with a border and shading.



In this piece, Ellen divided her paper into six sections then drew a different variety of Shattuck in each section.


Ellen used colored pencils to enhance part of this work and shaded the other parts.

Ellen drew curved-line Shattuck for the tail of the bird.
Ellen used gel pens to add color.


First, Ellen drew the woman on the left. Then she added
Straight-line and Curved-line Shattuck to the woman's shawl. Finally, Ellen used gel pens to add color.
