Squash Blossom Echoes

November was way too busy for me to keep up with the “Art Every Day” challenge.  I was good until the middle of the month, then Thanksgiving and Christmas preparations took over.  So I decided to have my own version in January… “Be Creative Every Day”! 
 
The challenge at Three Muses for this week is “Circles”.  I felt like drawing today and that was a fun idea to work on.  My inspiration was the beautiful squash blossom necklaces made by the Navaho in Arizona.

  1. I love your squash blossom circles. It's a sort of sophisticated zentangle. Thanks for joining our challenge this week!

  6. I've picked squash blossoms when I grew squash in my garden, but never thought of making necklaces out of them. I love how you interpreted the IA theme. Those circles are incredible.

  7. I once had a friend with some gorgeous turquoise and silver squash blossom necklaces so it clicked with me. This does have a zentangle feel to it as well. I'm glad you shared it for our Show and Tell this week.

  8. I love the way you created the squash blossom out of circles. Are you going to add any color? I think it would be beautiful either way.
