C-Six is another lovely tangle from Taiwan CZT Damy Teng.
Damy shares her inspiration for her C-Six tangle …
“[On a recent] weekend I went to southernmost tip of Taiwan (Eluanbi) with SHING-YA, riding a motorcycle. We enjoy together the Taiwan Strait sea waves hit the shore, so I drew this pattern.“
Damy shares this gorgeous photo she took at Cape Eluanbi with her iPhone, click on the image for the full size photo. I can almost hear the roar of the waves and smell the salty sea air. It definitely does not make me sea sick!

Damy illustrates the step-by-step instructions for drawing C-Six below and her Zentangle® tile shows several ways to vary C-Six. I used one of Damy’s variations for my example.

- "A Zentangle has no up or down and is not a picture of something, so you have no worries about whether you can draw a hand, or a duck. You always succeed in creating a Zentangle." Thus patterns that are drawings of a recognizable naturalistic or actual object, figure, or scene, are not tangles. A pattern is not always a tangle — here's what makes a tangle. TIP: tangles never start with pencil planning.

Damy, I really like this tangle. It reminds me of a blustery windy day on the coast here in Northern California. Thank you so much for sharing it with us. I’ve already used it in a ZIA. Very much fun to use.
Damy, where had this been all my life ? Tried several other tangles, say wave-ish , but this beats them all in fluctuation, feel, fun and last but not least simplicity. Thanks a million
Originally from San Diego, CA, I truly miss the ocean. This is a little reminder of the beach days. Love your pattern! Thank you for sharing.
Hi,

you add !! Thanks for all of your work !!
