I hope you all had a wonderful week - complete with St. Paddy's Day festivities. Remember how i said that it was almost Spring here in Saskatchewan? Well, because i tempted fate, we've had nothing but snow and freezing temperatures all week long. But at least it made for some good Snow Man making weather.

Typically, Saskatchewan winters are too cold for snowmen.
The air and snow are very dry and the snow doesn't stick together very well at crazy cold temperatures.
I was lucky enough to be the Kindergarten Helper mom on St. Patrick's Day - and what a fun day it was. Artoo's favourite colour is green, so he wanted to go all out.

Here's a little photo i took one morning this week. This was a classic case of being in the right place at the right time - because very shortly after i took the photo, it didn't look like this anymore.
SKY ON FIRE! They don't call Saskatchewan Land of the Living Skies for nothing. |

And Saturday night i was lucky to teach a lovely bunch of ladies and Intro to Zentangle class. I don't get a lot of chances to teach these days, so when i do - i really enjoy it.

Weekly Challenge #260: "Monotangle: Shattuck"
This week's challenge is to create a monotangle using the tangle Shattuck. You can find the step outs for this tangle here
A Monotangle is a term i coined here on the blog for a tile or piece created using only ONE tangle and it's variations.
For my tile, i created a very simple string with only two spaces.

Such a cute Leprechaun! Beautiful sky too. Your Shattuck is really interesting. I love to see tangles "pushed"!
ReplyDeleteA nice basis tangle this week, I like that!!!! I also like the photo of Artoo in green and the snowman ☃. Your tile is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteOh My Gosh! Just when I think your boys can't get any cuter....Artoo in his green suspenders! Swoon! Thud!
ReplyDeleteAgreed! Artoo was so darned cute! Sarah
DeleteBeautiful tile. You art just keeps getting prettier.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for this wonderful challenge - I love Shattuck :-)
ReplyDeleteAnd your boys are so cute...!
Excellent pictures and a fun challenge!
ReplyDeleteExcellent pictures and a fun challenge!
ReplyDeleteI was so happy to open this week's challenge and see that it was to do a monotangle using Shattuck, one of my favorites. I'm afraid I wasn't as imaginative as you, but I did get into a good zone while I was doing it. Awesome sunset (I shared one too), but I couldn't find any green suspenders. Cute!
ReplyDeleteLove Shattuck - thanks for the challenge!
ReplyDeleteLove that green shirt of Artoo's. I'm glad you've been having fun - you deserve it.
ReplyDeleteI loved the picture of the sky in flames, that beautiful *-* I 'm a beginner, but I like challenges. So I'll try and hope to improve on the way. ¡Saludos!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous sunset and that's the cutest leprechaun ever! Thanks for another great challenge;-)
ReplyDeleteGasp! On second look I realize that you used Tipple and Meer too! ;)
ReplyDeleteShattuck was one of those tangles I learned from the start of my zentangle adventure. I did like it very much then and I am happy to realize that this pattern is still taking me away !And as a monotangle i could go on forever! Thank´s for a great challenge!
ReplyDeleteGreat challenge! Something easy for a person who has never entered a challenge, nor tried to draw the tangle. Glad to be able to participate for the first time.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the challenge! I enjoyed it.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! Happy Easter!
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter!
ReplyDeleteLove all the photos; Artoo looks so cute in his leprechaun outfit. For some reason, this challenge took me a while to get into. But once I started, it practically drew itself.
