My Tangle of the day.. ok last two days !


Hello all !


I just wanted to post the tangle I have been working on for the last 2 days. I have to do it off and on as I am dealing with a lot of pain and trying to keep up with caring for Marvin . Speaking of him, please if you are a praying person, say a prayer for him to have some relief tonight (Monday April 19th, 2010) . We have been up and down all hours of the night and day for the last 4-5 days and I am wearing out ! They upped us Morphine today so I pray that will take care of it for a while . What a journey this has been !


Today's Tangle is of Marvin's left hand. I love his hands and want to always remember them. I think I scanned this and it is on it's side, but in the text that is in the journal it says how I love his hands and how they have held me, touched me, picked me up, wiped away a million tears and created so many beautiful things that make our house our home. He is a master furniture builder and does wonderful work without even making a pattern. Just gets a thought in his head and gets the wood to create it and off he goes ! AMAZING !!! Anyway, he bought me a new 8x5 1/4 Moleskine Sketchbook Journal. I love it to pieces ! In the Flickr Zentangle group several of the ladies have Zentangled in their hand print. I loved the idea but wanted to do his hand first ! He thought I had lost my mind when I first had him lay his hand in the opened journal and proceeded to lightly draw around his hand with a pencil !!! I just said " Please just sit still Honey, I will show you later what I am doing with it !" He just smiled at me and said "Ok Honey..whatever makes you happy !!" Gotta love this man ! hehehe !! He got such a kick out of watching me tangle on his hand and is really proud of what I did with it. I am too and I do not say that about my own artwork often. Well, I am my own worst critic and have battled that stinking thinking from the past "I'm not good enough... etc... ! " So I am learning to accept what I have done as good enough for today. Tomorrow I will learn more and have had more practice in Zentangle.


So here it is.. or up there it is.. I can't remember ! LOL!!! Thanks for stopping by and visit often. I hope to do more with my blogspot as time allows.


Hugs to all... Kristy.. aka Rose Twofeather at FLickr

  1. Hi Kristy, it's Kass here (sunnyhall on flickr).
    I just found your blog, I have recently started one too.
    I wish you and Marvin all the best - I have survived cancer 3 times (I am 32) and he is fighting a tough fight, no doubt, but love and prayer and the wonderful wisdom of doctors can all help to get you both through! I wish you well and will check in periodically to see how Marvin is faring.
    As you know I adore your Zentangles and your art so keep up your amazing work, it is so inspiring!
    Kass

  2. Hi Rose Twofeather
    you and Marvin are in my thoughts everyday, we have a good friend who lives close by also fighting the Cancer battle. He is strong and brave too.
    Early this morning we had a thunderstorm and lightening strike so our power has gone off. We are on tank water so need a pump therefore I can't have a shower or make a cup of tea. The power went off at 6 am it is now 9am. Just a small glinch in our daily life, lucky I don't have to be anywhere today. No complaints from me I will just do a zentangle...no power required!!
    Hugs
    Shelly
