A Happy Zentangle Anniversary

This week marks the 10th Anniversary of the day that Rick and Maria introduced Zentangle to the world, at the first public class in Providence, Rhode Island. Since then thousands of us have become addicted to this wonderful art form.

In honor of this special occasion, Adele Bruno, the Mastermind of "That String Thing", has created this string for this week's String Thing Challenge:
 
It's the perfect string for this occasion, 

 And this is my interpretation:
 I actually did shade this slightly, 
but somehow most of it got lost in the scanning.

Tangles used: 
Meer, Paushalov, Quib, and Ahh. 
Purple Fine Sharpie and White Sakura Gelly Roll pens, Violet Prismacolor pencil for the almost non-existent shading; on dusty orange Canson Mi-Teintes Pastel paper.

Be sure to check out all the entries @ Tickled to Tangle, on Monday, when Adele Bruno posts them. The vast differences that can be achieved using the same tangles on the same string are truly incredible. And, if you've a mind to try a String Thing yourself, check back on Tuesday, when she offers the new ones.
