How to draw BLOOMING KANGULAR

Spanish CZT Tomàs Padrós shares two fantastic new sister tangles with us today.

We began today’s tangle duo with Kangular and now we explore its sister tangle Blooming Kangular.

Tomàs writes:

Blooming Kangular is a more organic derivation of the tangle Kangular.

It follows the same principle whereby a shape emerges from a corner groove.

But here the angle of the groove adapts to the radial arrangement of some petals or leaves and stops necessarily making 90 degrees.

Hence, and in homage to Michele Beauchamp’s Blooming Butter, with which there are resonances, the name Blooming Kangular arose. The result is that of a flower trapped in a grid.

Tomàs illustrates the step-by-step instructions for drawing Blooming Kangular below and he features it in a sweet ZIA monotangle. This time of year Blooming Kangular would also look festive in holiday colors, don’t ya think? 🙂

6. "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.
