The lovely Maylea tangle is by Simone Bischoff, and it’s her second tangle pattern on the site.
Using Google Translate for the German-to-English version of her blog, Simone tells us Maylea means wild flower. It’s been a floral tangles week here on TanglePatterns.
There are quite a few tangles that begin with basic Cadent-like “orbs” and curved lines and although Maylea is shown as a border in Simone’s steps, I experimented with it here as an all-over tangle. To have enough room for the double curved connecting lines, be sure to space your starting circles far enough apart.
Simone illustrates the steps for drawing Maylea here.

"Absolutely the best Zentangle Book yet! As an accomplished artist I used to think I did not need instruction on this art form. How wrong I was! My tangling improved by leaps and bounds after reading this book. If you think you have Zentangle down then you need this book more than ever!" ~ Kris H | |
