This week's Challenge is a UMT created by Maria Vennekens, CZT, from the Netherlands. The Diva's challenge and Maria's breakout instructions of Sankegg are here.
This was the most difficult/challenging tangle for me to draw (of all the Diva's 89 weekly challenges). I am still struggling with the concept of drawing Sankegg. Drawing a single row of the tangle was as far as I could go before my work turned into..... alien pen lines! And today is Saturday... so my options were: either post it now or forfeit! So, here it is.
I don't usually give a title to my Weekly Challenges, but after I finished the tangle and did the shading, I held it at arms length for a final review and appreciation. That is when I started to laugh so hard that I cried.... and decided to name this piece of art "Gabrielle" ***
My final ZIA design was truly a surprise. I don't know WHAT I was thinking!!
Thank you Maria and Laura.
Happy tangling...
... and thank you for visiting.

I think this single line with Sankegg lookes very nice. I had the same, that's all I could do with it.
