July Zentangles

Zentangles are not meant to look like anything, of course, but all 3 of these bring images to mind for me.  7 looks like spider webs, 8 looks like a quilt pattern and 9 looks like a finger print. 

Weather continues to be unreliable in the north woods…one or two days we get some sunshine and nice enough to be out on the lake then 3 days of dismal cold and rain and the mosquitoes are back again.  We just cannot seem to get a streak of nice weather.  Monday night we had HAIL…pretty significant hail and well, enough weather whining.

We are completing our cabin remodeling this week…or at least up to a "point" of being able to stop for awhile.  There are several significant things still left to do but hubby has been "at it" now since early June and it's time for him to have some "time off" to play.  
Or at least to work at some other things that are outdoors and probably a bit more enjoyable!  

I am hanging curtains now and cleaning some cupboards and we have to put away all the tools which is a job in itself.  

In between I am preparing for the Manitowish Waters Art Show AND the Howard Young show which are back to back…the first 3 paintings need to be ready to show by Sunday morning.  I still have a bit of framing to finish up on those.  

I am also preparing materials now for two back to back Zentangle classes I am giving, July 31 and Aug 1. (see side bar).  Today is the Lakeland Art League meeting in Woodruff, WI.  Tomorrow (if weather cooperates) is my outdoor painting group.
