Tangled Thursday - I am the Diva Challenge 167

This week I thought I would try a challenge from another group.  I am the Diva issues a weekly challenge.  This week she suggested a duotangle using only Wells and Punzel.  I have tried Punzel previously and had some difficulty with it .  What a better thing to be challenged with, than something I find difficult.

Since the tangle Punzel is of a linear nature, I wanted to use strings that had such a feature.   string 94 was my first attempt.  I like the results with the exception of the lines I used for the fill behind Punzel.  They clash with the lines of Wells.

Welcome to Tangled Thursday.  A few of my local and online friends have joined me in an occasional Zentangle challenge.  We'll take turns choosing a theme  and them post our drawings in about 2 weeks time.  All are welcome to join in the fun.  If you are new to Zentangles, then visit the website for a complete explanation and all sorts of online resources.  I'm also a big fan of TanglePatterns.com.

 My second tile uses string 103, which I have previously used and enjoyed.  I started with Punzel and really like the effect, but when I added Wells, it just looks all mushed together.

I cut Punzel out and used a glue stick to affix it to a new tile.

 added a two line aura to give it a bit of a breathing space.

 Finally added Wells. No background filling lines this time .  It still is too crowded and the Punzel gets lost.

Adding colour in a couple of spots does help, but it still is a bit overwhelming.  Oh well, it was a challenge and I have tried some new things and learned a bit more.

Tami, at Just One More Thing, has posted our challenge for next week.  This is a very timely one for those of us with family members readying for a new phase of their life adventure.
